Beer has a rich history. The beverage can be traced back to about 6,000 years ago in ancient Sumeria. At this time, beer was cloudy because it was not filtered. Beer was also consumed through a straw. In 2000 BCE, the Babylonians brewed about 20 different types of beer. Around this time, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans were also brewing beer, but wine was more popular among the Romans. During the Middle Ages, water was too contaminated to safely drink. Instead of drinking water, people would drink beer. Beer was for people of all ages and all classes. Even the Catholic Church got involved in brewing beer. Today, beer is enjoyed across the globe by people of legal drinking age.
