The association of beer with mititei however came only during the 1877 Independence War of Romania and after that it saw a spread of beer pubs throughout the Romanian Kingdom. The beer pubs (berării) became a place of social and business meetings for the Romanian urban middle-class.
Romanian law considers beer and wine to be foodstuffs and therefore they are not subject to the usual tariffs and restrictions imposed upon alcoholic beverages.
The word "beer" in Romanian (bere) is derived from GermanBier (itself an early loan from Latinbiber), but there is also an obsolete regional word "olovină", of Slavic origin.
