A US brewer has recreated a beer that was first brewed in China 9,000 years ago.
Sam Calagione of the Dogfish Head brewery in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, used rice, honey, and grape and hawthorn fruits.
He got the recipe from archaeologists who derived it from the residues of pottery jars found in the late Stone Age village of Jiahu.
The residues are the earliest direct evidence of brewed beverages in ancient China, reports National Geographic.
