    Isis Pale Ale.

    It should be interesting to see what Sumerian beer was like, too, there’s a 5,000 year old ode to drinking beer on a hot late afternoon, as the cool ocean breeze begins to arrive.

    If I understand what I’ve read recently, they’d already had beer since beyond memory, brewing beer was one of the great drivers of the adoption of agriculture, the oldest known jugs where beer might have been fermented predate ovens for baking bread by millennia, of course humanity must have been chasing the buzz for as long as it’s been able.

    However, they did also make a rudimentary bread back then, spreading kneaded dough on flat rocks, leaving it to cook and harden by the sun’s rays.
