Lots of Random Facts about Beer
The Santa Cruz Sentinel has a long list of random facts about beer and brewing. Here are just a few that I happen to find interesting:
- July is American Beer Month.
- The oldest known beer recipe is from 4000 BC.
- Hops is a member of the cannabis family. (Did I mention today is International Cannabis Day?)
- “Booze” comes from the Nubian “boosa”, a type of strong beer.
- Sake is technically beer.
