History Of Beer

The exact time frame of beer is debatable. Experts place it between 10,000 years to 7,500 years ago. That makes beer the oldest drink known to mankind. The inventors or discovers of beer, are however, not disputed. Almost everyone agrees that the Sumerians were first to brew them. (God bless their Souls!)

The Ingredients: Barley grains, malt, hops, yeast and water. Each one of them greatly alters the final taste of the brew.

Types Of Beer Beer comes in a number of varieties and variations. However, beer can be categorized under Lager or Ale.

Lager: When beer is produced using the bottom fermentation process, a lager is produced. In this process the yeast sinks to the bottom of the tank during fermentation. A pale gold liquid is produced.

Ales: When beer is produced using the top fermentation process, ales are produces. In this process the yeast is skimmed off the top during fermentation. Ales are usually darker and stronger in flavour.

A more comprehensive categorizing is given below:

Ale: Contains high content of hops and malt. Dark, almost black colour, defines this beer.

Bock: It has its origins in German springs. It is maltier and heavier then traditional beers.

Ice Beer: It is a medium lager with higher alcohol content, due to the removal of ice crystals.

Lager: It means ‘to store’ in German. It has a smooth, refined taste.

Lambic: It is a type of wheat beer to which fruit/sugar is added during fermentation. It has its origin in Belgium

Light Beer: It is characterized by a pale, watery look. It is low in calories and alcohol content.

Pilsners: It gets its name from a town named Pilsner in Czech Republic, where it was invented. It is known for having a malt character and dry, flowery finish. Pilsners are the most popular brewed beers in the world. Golden Lagers too fall in this category.

Porter: This is an extremely dark ale. It contains high content of hops and malt.

Sake: Sake is a Japanese beer made from rice. There are many types of sake and can be had in a variety of ways. This is allowing sake to compete with wine, as a cult.

Stout: This is one of the few beers that is sometimes served warm. However, the author likes it like any other beer, CHILLED! It has its origins in London and tastes of charcoal and molasses with a bitter sweet finish.

Wheat Beer: This type of beer is made with wheat malts. It has hints of fruit flavours such as banana, apple or orange. It is typically deep copper in colour.

White Beer: It is wheat beer with lambic hints. Like lambic beers, it has its origin in Belgium and has a fruity taste.

A Special note on Draft (or Draught): Draft is any beer that is poured out of a keg. Any beer can be poured as a draft. Typically stout and lager beers are served as draft.

The drinks that are more popular than beer are tea and water. Many people drink beer because it lessens stress, augments blood flow, maintains the memory power of the brain, prevents stroke, and fends off gallstones. It is also patronized by men and women because it is beneficial to the heart, full of fiber that aids in bowel movement, full of multi-vitamins, healthy for the liver, and a cure for insomnia. What separates it from all alcohol-based drinks is its refreshing and powerful impact in quenching thirst! Another is that great feeling that comes after gulping a bottle or mug of it. It is a dream of every beer drinker to design and brew his own beer that could be shared with colleagues, friends, and family or be enjoyed in solitude. The magic and beauty of brewing your perfect beer does not only depend on the processes that you will perform but also on the beer brewing supplies that you will peruse.

Beer in the Earlier History of Men and Women

It is very fascinating to know that the same drink was brewed by Sumerians thousands of years ago. The Gilgamesh Epic, which is a remnant of the Ancient Mesopotamia, tells of how men of wars drank beer at the end of their battles. The Hammurabi Code, which is considered as the first written law that humans created, even spoke of beer ration. In Ancient Egyptian civilization, pharaohs and members of the royal family used to drink beer in the evening. In medieval times, alewives brewed beer using homegrown and homemade beer brewing supplies that were brought by knights to foreign lands along with their breads.

Interesting Beer Myths That Must Be Unlearned

Just like Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison of the Doors, and Adolf Hitler, beer is surrounded with myths that must be examined and unlearned. Some of these untruthful myths about it and beer brewing supplies are:

▪ Drink light beer to prevent a paunch. What is true is when you drink more than you should, you get to have a paunch, light beer or not.

▪ Returning an unopened bottle of beer to the refrigerator after exposing it to room temperature damages its taste. What is true is when you expose beer to light and air by not consuming after removing the bottle cap damages it.

▪ Better beer is not bitter. What is true is hops, which are used as preservatives, create the bitter taste. The more bitter beer is the longer is its shelf life.

▪ Green bottles are best for beer. What is true is a brown bottle that prevents light from penetrating its surface is best for beer.

▪ Beer is only for men not for women. What is true is it is well-liked both by men and women. It is a very sexist notion that it is very inappropriate for women to drink beer.
