The thing I love about alcohol and history is 1. Almost every cocktail has a story. 2. Humans haven't fundamentally changed all that much over time. Back in 1682 people still enjoyed a good beer, they still talked to each other about their crushes and exes, and they still walked into rooms, forgot why they walked into that room, left the room, and then remembered why they went into the other room in the first place.

It's not like I don't like it. I have tasted it a little bit for some events. Don't wanna be the square. But, I know myself very well I willl get addicted to it so I had to stop while I can. So, I don't drink it if there is no real reason. Ain't gonna ruin my life over drinks. I'm not going to fool myself saying "nah, I'm strong enough. I deserved some fun anyway". It's been notoriously known drinks are the place to hide from the truth. My life won't be easy. If something bad happens I need to recover fast instead of running away. I'm not going to make a place to runaway. I have to force myself to face the problems.

Your videos always seem like a trailer which I wanna see the whole movie of!

The problem with brewing a 1500 year old beer is that you need their yeast, its far from the same otherwise. You need the way the yeast come to being and then have that kind of yeast with the beer you make.

@danielmarinov3560

CDarkSilver Well natural yeast is found everywhere in the world and species of yeast in different regions are pretty well documented, especially if they're used for fermenting so it's not hard to import. He even says in the video that certain cultures used bread yeast, which couldn't be easier to find, you mix some flour with water and leave it in a bowl for 2-3 days and you have a starter for your ancient beer... or bread.

Daniel Marinov yea true but the changes of the weather and what's in the air is very different depending on country aswell as food and allot of other variables that change so even with lots of research it's still close to impossible to get it right. Even though allot of research could put you close to the yeast of different ancient cultures aswell as making beer of their kind.

@danielmarinov3560

Seems about right, it's probably alot of small-scale experimentation and luck to find the right one. The closest they can get is probably finding a somewhat regional brewing manual which describes the process of making the starting culture and limiting the possible yeast species from there. It's definitely not an easy job, but it's awesome and you can tell the dude has a ton of passion and love for his craft.

I wasn't aware Ancient Egyptians had beer. I had assumed that beer as we understand it was a European thing, and that the alcohols made back in the day were composed of fermented fruit so were more like wines, ciders, or meads (considering the ancient Egyptians loved honey, mead in particular for them). I'm curious where he got the research for his recipe from.

6 years later, yes you're technically correct. Beer is an ale that is brewed with hops. These days though, beer and ale are used almost interchangeably because the features which once delineated beer from ale have been blended.

Wow so this is my dream come true ! I always wanted to make medieval beer that Sue Perkin's drank in the show "supersizer go Medieval".

I love this !!!! I would love to see you Brew it the way the ancients did! No modern Technology.

Exactly what I'm in the mood to see 😯

Avery's Sour Apricot is one of my favorites …. I'd be really interested to try an 'ancient' beer assuming they aren't bitter. Didn't sound like it.

The Viking beer looks like Mjød (honney beer)

Mmmm. I wish I had money to travel and get to this brewry. I love Avery. Hopefully one day I will go there.

This is Awesome!

I been looking for an ale thats game of thrones style, figured i would have to make it myself. A gruit seems the closest to it. Thinking of using mugwort and cloves with an oat wort. Any thoughts on adding molasses? I want it as traditional as i can get. "So thick you can nearly chew it"

got a history assignment coming up? lets go drinking! its for "research" i promise...

If i was an ancient Egyptian i'd want to drink future beer... like a refreshing Coors Banquet ;-)

"It unifies people" It also caused a murder by axe in a tavern and made a man so drunk that he fell into a well and died. But I would still drink it

I would really like to try some

finally found a great chanel ^^

I stopped drinking alcohol three years ago. After this video, I regret it

I don't wanna be a drinker when I'm old enough but I'd like to try the Viking one

1:20 I like to visit that bar.

What you do at work? Drink beer. And on your free time? Drink beer.

Are these ancient beers available to purchase or taste at this Brewery?

5000 BC : Egyptians make beer 5000 BC 2am: Egyptian women start to look better😁

Could someone help me find where I can buy this beer? I wanted to create a an ancient Mesopotamian brew in college but didn't have the time, research or resources. I just want to have another connection to my routes other than my family's cooking. Hopefully I'll get a chance one day. Fun fact, the ancient Mesopotamians would drown the brewmaster in the brew he created if it became a spoiled batch. Beer was like gold back then.

You can use the hymn to ninkasi, who was the godddess of beer in ancient mesepotamia. They literally documented the process and it's very easy to make.

The Viking one is called mjöd/mjød (depending on which country the vikings came from)

Where can I acquire these ancient brews?

Thought they found beer that was brewing for 1,100 years old

I need...to...go....here!

To quote this guy who makes beer all day for a living"I like to have a glass of ancient Egyptian beer at the end of a hard day's work" is easy proof that he's not joking about this stuff. To go even further into my own research this must've been some hardy beer (even though I've never tasted it) based off of the supposed wages of the standard pyramid builder, which was just two gallons of beer! I think this must've been the majority of the food and water a human needed besides certain treats probably high in vitamin C since they would've all died of scurvy unless the beer itself had the Vitamin C to supplement the loss of the electrolyte due to alcohol consumption. I must say! They had it figured out one way or another!

Now I want to have each one of those beers, and I don't even drink.

So ancient Egyptian beer actually tastes good WOW , in a way it doesn't surprise me the Egyptians were far more advanced then we give them credit for .

does he make mjød too?

I don't like alcohol but I'm willing to try ancient beer I bet it tastes a lot different

Wait, beer archeology is a thing? Why the frak didn't I know this in college!?!?

"Brewing ancient beer on a modern system is quite challenging" ... no shit
