Erfurt became incredibly rich by selling Woad dye to the textile market.  Woad was a plant found in the region that created a beautiful blue dye.  Beer was an integral process in mixing the dye.  So when the brewers had a fresh batch ready they would stuff the holes above the doors to let everyone know.
