Most Will Know I like The Occasional Tipple,

and pieces of trivia,

so it was a bit of a surprise to find out that both were in one object, this is the oldest written recipe in the world at 5,000 years old or there abouts and it is a recipe for? you guessed it beer! this Sumerian beer recipe dates back to 3000 BC, the resulting beer if brewed would be very strong and would contain chunks of bread floating around in it, so food and drink at the same time, neat.
