Beer History
Apparently beer was alive and kicking back in the days of 6th millennium BC, it is recorded in the written history of ancient egypt.
The brewing industry today is a huge global business, More than 133 billion liters (35 billion gallons) are sold per year—producing total global revenues of $294.5 billion (£147.7 billion) in 2006.
Now because beer has been around for ages and is the most popular alcholic drink today i think it deserves a news spot. Any new beers or info I find it will be posted here.
