The Reinheitsgebot still exists, although it is not forced by law any more, but all decent German breweries accept and follow it. The EU unfortunately killed the law, so the imported artificial stuff is not forbidden any more. It will be available in the lowest shelf of large supermarkets and in certain touristy surroundings. No Germans who have their brains in the right place and shape would buy that crap, though.
