The purity law has nothing to do with hangovers, it just says what you can make beer with. It's the alcohol and dehydration that gives you the hangover.

But hangovers also have to do with the kind of alcohol and the waste that is left after the brewing process. I've never had a killer hangover on german beer. So there most be a connection.

Well, I remember a time I was quite sick in Hannover, and I drank but German beer! All brewed "nach dem deutschen Reinheitsgebot" etc. The bottle of cola I had with me (1l) was finished the day after, un just 5 minutes.
And I rarely have hangovers from Jupiler beer (except maybe when in plastic), which is not at all brewed according tothe purity law!

It doesn't say much about the beer, it might maybe say something about you, and your immunity system, regarding eventual resedues in the said beer.

So I looked it up. Turns out science doesn't really know what causes a hangover besides to much alcohol = hangover.

But there are a couple of researches that indicate that "Congeners" can make it feel worse. And these can get into drinks more if you use more ingredients. Therfore vodka for instance causes less hungover (though you're of course more likely to drink more alcohol when you drink vodka and therefore have a hangover anyway :p )
So the reinheitsgebot could help with this because they always have the same ingredients. Though I can imagine that your go to beer, grolsch for me and Jupiler for you, pretty much have the same Congeners all the time and you could probably get used to them. I also very rarely have hangovers when i just drink grolsch.

I second that.
