Now you can taste beers from thousands of years ago

Humans have always known to do two things: war and drinking alcohol.

From war there are many historical records throughout history, with quarrels and vendettas that are still going today, but the historic records of alcohol are less well known.

Our palate has been used to certain flavors from our drinks, which are very different from the ones our ancestors enjoyed.

And if we are talking about alcohol, we have to talk about beer.

Drinks 7,000 BC

So far, the oldest archeological finding of beer occurred in China or at least the closest thing to beer as we know it.

This fermented drink dates shortly after humans started the transition from hunters to farmers, around 7,000 BC.

The few remains were discovered in some pots in a reservoir which contained barely enough material to label it as something similar to beer.

Scandinavia is an area that has been linked to the consumption of beer with a tradition that goes beyond the 1,200 BC, however back then; beer was quite different, made from fermented yarrow and blueberries among other vegetables.

This recipe is now being used in drinks today, looking for a different flavor, more like the one we had thousands of years ago.

Current beers have a tradition of only 500 years when the Germans began a crusade for the "purity" of beer.

It started with the Reinheitsgebot or purity law established by William IV of Bavaria in 1516. The purpose was to make beer with barley alone and not with other cereals that were necessary to make bread so the price of bread would not increase.

This law only allowed making beer ​​with barley, hops and yeast. It is a popular belief that these are the ingredients used in the beers we drink today, but is not necessarily true.

The amount of hops and barley malt has been reduced to a minimum. They have been replaced with corn which is cheaper and has a similar contribution of sugars.

Nowadays, instead of adding hops, beer is pasteurized and micro-filtered so it can be preserved longer, leading to a yellow alcoholic beverage with gas that we call beer, but that has little to do with the beer that was made in Germany in 1516, which in time had little to do with the beers made by the Etruscans, Sumerians, Egyptians, etc.

Some of the beers that emulate the ancient ales as Sam Calagione refers to them, the head master brewer of Dogfish are the Midas Touch with juice of Muscat grapes, honey and saffron; and Birra Etruscan del borgo with honey and aged in amphoras of terracotta..

Nun Caught Stealing Beer

Nun Caught Stealing Beer

The video is certainly funny, but you have to question it, since it has been posted on YouTube first and then the digital edition of The Sun without providing many details ... meaning that it could be a fake.



In YouTube they state that the images have been captured by security cameras at a supermarket. In them is a nun stealing beer from a fridge but nobody knows if it was really a nun or a person disguised to raise less suspicion. The truth is that the 'sister' in question gets beer from a fridge and saves it in to her habits. Curious indeed!

A Bulgarian Beer that produces Breast Augmentation

According to the Austrian Times in its online edition, there is a drink in Bulgaria quite similar to a beer that increases the size of the breast.

Is it possible that consuming a type of beer may increase your bust in one or two sizes?

At first, the drink made with wheat flour and brewer's yeast was developed ​​to help new mothers who had difficulty breastfeeding their babies, but the fact is that many women started to contact the company that manufactures this beverage known as “Bohza”, to report that they had noticed considerable changes in the size of their breasts.

"We have hundreds of testimonials from women who say that her breasts have increased one or two sizes," said Kristian Gyosheve the company’s spokesman to the Austrian Times. However, the spokesman also recognizes that by no means the company is promoting the product by its qualities to increase bust size.

Would this mean that some women might say goodbye to breast augmentation surgery with a pint of this type of drink? "It is natural, healthy, fun and cheaper than plastic surgery," explains Gyosheve.

The 5 most expensive beer in the world

The 5 most expensive beer in the world

 

We have in our minds that beer is the cheapest type of booze and in most cases it may be.

But beer can also be a luxury product based on its quality and some brands can have a correlation with fine wines in their exclusive prices. So we searched the five beers with high prices for beer lovers:

Space Barley (barley space) : This is a "space " beer of Japanese origin , is the world's first beer made ​​with barley that has been grown in space. How? Very simple, some seeds were carried to the International Space Station in 2006 as part of an investigation conducted by the Russian Academy of Sciences and Okayama University , Sapporo.

The seeds spent five months aboard the station and the aim was to meet the adaptability and life cycle of barley to zero gravity. This beer all is astronomical, as it has a price ranging from $ 19 per bottle.

Pabst Blue Ribbon 1844: 

This brand is positioned as a luxury , because the bottle cap has screw top and is covered by a snap-off plastic casing labeling that is difficult to make because the bottle is black and the base of the neck with an indication of the year of manufacture is ink. This beer is only sold in Chin with a very special taste, slightly bitter citric bark , hints of concentrated apple juice and cherry notes. Its color? A caramel malt and it sells for around $ 44 per bottle.

 

Tutankhamun Ale : no , it's not a beer from the Middle East, is crafted in a laboratory in the university of Cambridge. The name is given by its creator, the archaeologist Barry Kemp who in 1990 discovered the recipe in the Sun Temple of Queen Nefertiti.

Why that name? The recipe was found in a brewery inside a temple built by King Akenhaten , Tut 's predecessor , and was given the name of the queen 's stepson , King Tut . The price ranges from 52 to $ 70 a bottle, this beer only produced a total of a thousand bottles although some of them were auctioned for $ 500.

BrewDog Sink the Bismarck : 

Scottish origin , belongs to the category of beer BrewDog, with around 41 % alcohol in it.

It has a golden amber that contains four times the hops and four times the bitterness to reach 41 % alcohol. This means that its aroma is resinous and spicy. The price of $ 80 is normal for these beer makers, who have chosen to put a cap which can offer the opportunity to taste it several times.

Crown Ambassador:   

 This beer is crafted by Australia's Carlton & United and it could deceive you by the appearance, not a wine though it may seem by the bottle in which it is presented. It has a deep color, carbonated and covered with a creamy head. 

It has a different flavor from the rest, which reminds us beer Malta , caramelized but with a bitter taste. Priced at $ 90 per 75 cl per bottle , this beer is reserved for the finest pockets.

Beer, healthier than a cup of coffee. Another reason to use the best beer glasses

All indications show that beer can be healthier than a cup of coffee.

 This was confirmed by a group of Israeli researchers at Tel Aviv University , Israel.

 According to various sources collected by Russia Today, scientists have discovered that coffee can reduce life expectancy, while beer may increase it.

The reason? Caffeine seem to shorten telomeres, the ends of chromosomes, that play an important role in protection of the genome in each cell, while alcohol extends them. Telomeres are like a biological clock of the cell and shorten as the cell ages.

 When telomeres reduce too much, the cell dies. Short telomeres are associated with poor health and increased likelihood of early death.

For the first time we have identified some environmental factors that alter telomere length and have shown how they do it, said Professor Martin Kupiec.

What we have learned could contribute to the prevention and treatment of diseases, commented the expert.  The researchers say that even a cup of coffee contains enough caffeine to affect telomere length.

At the same time, the investigators determined if several environmental factors have an impact on the length of telomeres in yeast cells, and found that the temperature and pH changes have no effect.

The good news is that if you like to enjoy a cup of coffee or a delicious beer, you can do it with the most advanced generation beer  mugs: Easy & Cool
