Austrian Breweries (and the Beers they brew)

Introduction
In this page, I detail everything you'll ever need to know about Austrian breweries and Austrian beer. The Austrian brewing Industry - what, where, how much, when., by whom: I describe it all. You lucky gits. And I don't even charge you for it. Austria is Germany's shy younger brother (in brewing terms) no more. If it ever was. By my calculation, Austria is the most densely-breweried country in the world.

It says on their website that they brew in strict accordance with the Reinheitsgebot of 1516, "which means that beer can only be brewed from water, hops and malt". They should perhaps try reading the text of the original Reinheitsgebot. It states that beer can only be brewed from water, barley and hops. Wheat beer was specifically forbidden.

Independent brewery.

When the owner Johann Feiks decided to emigrate to America in1905 it seemed as if the brewery was doomed to close. Four local citizens came to the rescue and bought the enterprise. They renamed it "Bürgerliche Brauerei Neumarkt" and they and their descendants have been in charge ever since. Later the brewery acquired its current name, Ritterbräu, derived from Neumarkt's coat of arms.
