Glad we have here, where I live, something called "Reinheitsgebot"
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinheitsgebot] and also a history
of quality beer, of course. :-)

 
The best thing about the Reinheitsgebot is that it specifies that
half of the year a Mass of bier may not exceed one Pfennig in price,
and for the other half of the year it may not exceed two Pfennigs.

(That's just one part of the text, the other part is as indicated
by its name Reinheitsgebot (~ "purity commandment") about quality
by specifying the allowed ingredients. It was a counter measure
against fraud and profiteering.)

And you say german brewers are still abiding by that, do you? If
so, I must visit.

No. If you want cheep beer stay away. The beer prices today are
horribly high. For example on the Oktoberfest one Mass (1 liter)
had cost about 14.50 Euro last year (IIRC). In a nice Biergarten
in Munich you still pay something ranging from about 8.50 Euro
to 11.00 Euro.

Frankly, if I'd see some beer offered for one or two Pfennig I'd
be very reluctant to even taste that. ;-)
