Rams with Shield.
The ram, or Bock, is the German symbol of Bockbier, a strong dark beer. Bockbier, or "strong beer," originated in Germany and has become an important part of German beer culture. The traditional glass for bok-bir contains a picture of a goat.
Although the etymology of Bock beer has nothing to do with a goat (and Bock is German for "goat"), the image of this animal is often placed on the label. In Poland, the term "kozlyak" is used.
Bock beer originates in the Hanseatic city of Einbeck (now in the state of Lower Saxony). After gaining city status in 1240, the citizens also received the right to brew beer. In the Middle Ages, bottom-fermented beer was exported throughout Europe, even as far as Italy. To ensure the freshness of the beer during long-distance transportation, it was made particularly dense and strong.
Munich rulersThe Wittelsbachs imported bock beer from Einbeck in 1555, until they built a court brewery in the castle in 1573. Trausnitz (in 1589 it was moved to Munich). In 1614, Elias Pichler was invited from Einbeck to the brewery. Over time, due to the peculiarities of the Bavarian dialect, his beer became known as Bockbier, or beer from Ainebeck.
