“KAPITTEL” means Capital. Karl Marx must have loved this beer, since his most famous book was "Das Kapital” (German). Don’t worry, the origin of the beer has nothing to do with communism, and Karl hated Religion. The “Kapittel” was and is the managing board of an abbey, which consists of the Abbot and his lieutenants, sometimes assisted by representatives of the Church, be it the local Bishop or even a representative from Rome. In some cases, the local Lord was also part of the board, especially when he was the sponsor of the abbey. In other cases, one or more representatives of the higher authorities of the abbey’s Order were part of the “Kapittel”, especially when the abbey was young and hadn’t yet created a name and authority for itself. This gives you at the same time the explanation about where Capitalism comes from. It always is the “Kapittel”, the capital, which makes the decisions.
