Description
Einbecker Ur-Bock - "Without Einbeck, there'd be no such thing as bock beer."

"The best drink known to man is called Einbecker Beer ."

The great German reformer Martin Luther praised the "Ainpöcksche Bier" (old German for Einbecker Beer) with these words in front of the Worms Reichstag in 1521.

About 150 years before Luther's speech in Worms, beer trade had already become the most important economic factor for the city of Einbeck. The oldest existing receipt for the sale of Einbecker beer dates back to April 28, 1378 and documents the sale of two tons of beer to the city of Celle.

Comments
BBC » I bought this beer in Germany in 1989 and now I can't quite recall the nuances of its flavour.
