Which country invented Beer ? Learn more with PerfectDraft

This creation is said to date back to 6000 BC. It's difficult to name the country; it's more a question of a region, Mesopotamia, on the Asian continent.

However, the origin of beer is mostly a matter of chance. In fact, one of the first names for beer is sikaru, meaning liquid bread. The Sumerians used to prepare their bread and cakes in advance. These foods were then stored and became very dry. Consequently, to eat them gently without damaging their teeth, the inhabitants of this eastern region had to soak them to soften them, before their meal.

A Sumerian once forgot to remove his bread from its water container. The bread was then transformed into beer under the effect of natural yeasts and fermentation.

The first beverages are thought to have been made by the Sumerians.

The first drinks would then have been brewed in the region of Uruk, which corresponds to southern Iraq.
