In 1516, Bavaria enacted a beer purity law called the Reinheitsgebot that dictated the only ingredients allowed in beer would be malt, hops, yeast and water. Thankfully, you don't have to listen to that! Although these are the basic four components of beer, ingredients beyond the original four are called adjuncts, and the careful use of them can make for some really interesting beers. Select one of the tabs above for ingredient groups, or choose the "Recipe Kits" tab and choose from one of our outstanding prepackaged Old West recipes. Can't find what you are looking for?
