Science follows function
On November 12th, 2015 the Ludwig Narziß Award for Brewing Science was bestowed at BrauBeviale for the first time. In her opening address, Dr. Lydia Winkelmann, Editor-in-Chief of BRAUWELT International, briefly summarised the background to this award (BRAUWELT International no. 4, 2015, pp. 238-240). She thanked everyone who contributed to initiating the award, e.g. Dr. Jörg Lehmann, Chairman of the Association of Weihenstephan Brewing Studies Alumni, former PhD students of Prof. Dr. Ludwig Narziß, who very decisively gave conceptual and financial support and, ultimately, the eponym. For more than 60 years – the scientific journal BrewingScience, Fachverlag Hans Carl, has facilitated knowledge transfer among researchers and for use in practice for all that time –, he was not just instrumental in shaping science, he also had a formative influence in dissemination of scientific knowledge for everyday application.
