Unlock the secrets of a 3,900-year-old Sumerian poem and discover how it's not just a tribute to the goddess Ninkasi, but also a recipe for the beer that coursed through ancient Mesopotamia's veins. With my cohost, Phoenix, we celebrate the professional brewmasters of yore, whose precise record-keeping on clay tablets offers us a glimpse into a society where beer was more than a frothy beverage—it was a cornerstone of civilization, a currency, and a staple of sustenance.
As we clink our glasses filled with the past, join us in a lighthearted yet enlightening exploration of what Sumerian "Yelp reviews" might have entailed and how today's craft beer critiques echo the accountability of ancient beer transactions. We raise our cups not only to the grand empires and epic battles but to the vibrant day-to-day life that these historical artifacts represent. Toast with us to the tales that bubbled up from history's frothy depths and stay curious for more journeys into the lesser-known stories of our past.
