Drinking a good craft beer means drinking a piece of history. Traces of beer have been found in very ancient civilizations: in Asia there have been finds of the Sumerian culture dating back as far as 5000 years ago which testify that beer was already a reality. Subsequently, an Assyrian tablet in Mesopotamia names the profession of brewer, while the Babylonian market counted as many as twenty different types of beer. In Ancient Egypt however, beer was considered excellent for weaning infants and was also thought to have medicinal properties. Beer has always been closely linked to mythology, divinities, legends and magic. From the Norse populations to the Ancient Romans: history is dotted with anecdotes about beer.
