Reinheitsgebot (purity law)

Oldest food quality regulation in the world. Ordered by Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria in the year 1516. It said that beer should only be brewed from barley, hops and water. Today, yeast is also used, an ingredient whose effect was unknown at the time. Back then, brewers would just use the yeast that was present in the air.
