500 years of the Reinheitsgebot: Munich exceptionalism
This is the name of an exhibition at the Münchner Stadtmuseum (Munich City Museum) at St. Jakobs-Platz running from April 7th 2016 to January 8th 2017 about the city’s beer and its breweries. The name is a play on words in German, since it can mean both, “Beer makes Munich”, and “beer-power Munich”. Because it is the anniversary of the Reinheitsgebot, the German purity law governing beer, this is not unusual. Nevertheless, with the exhibition focusing exclusively on beer, it fits perfectly into the ranks of the many other exhibitions and festivities surrounding the big anniversary. BRAUWELT International met with the curator, Ursula Eymold, in Munich to gain a first impression of the exhibition.
