- Ancient Beers Recreated -- Reviving Lost Beer Styles
Moderns brewers love to experiment with beer. They love it sow much they even try to revive beer styles and techniques that have long been lost to time. Today on Beer By The Numbers we examine 2 cases of modern brewers using ancient techniques and ingredients to revive humanity's rich brewing tradition.

WOW! Thank you for the shout out. Loved the video. I think I’d go for the Celtic brew although the Egyptian one sounds good too. Really cool that university’s are working with breweries to try to recreate ancient brews. As soon as you said mandrake all I could think of is Harry Potter, lol. Great video. I’ve been lookin to see if I can find anything on Catherine Von Bora’s recipe but no good leads yet. Cheers 🍻 and Merry Christmas Ryan🎄 thanks again 😁
No problem, glad you enjoyed it. Speaking of Harry Potter, it makes it much harder to find a real picture of mandrake root because of how popular that is haha. Cheers!
I tried brewing up an Egyptian lotus wine in my college years, but someone came over during a party and ended up drinking the whole thing before i could try it.
Oooo. That stings a bit, dang partiers, bet it was a fun night though haha. Cheers!
I love beer, been drinking the stuff since the 1960s. We had loads of different beers in the UK, until big companies bought them out and ruined the brews. Great idea, bringing back the old brews. Keep up the good work. Peace and goodwill.
Dope video mate. Pretty cool people are reviving this stuff!!
This video was literally awesome, I love Egyptian culture and history so I was so excited to get some with a beer focus. Great job man! Cheers!
Thanks so much! This was a fun one research indeed!
I personally would like to try Egyptian beer and early American Colonial beer.
Thanks for this informative documentary.
that Celtic brew sounds right up my alley! Maybe similar to a lichtenhainer? Yum!
I didn't think of that right away but you might be right!
So cool that brewers are bringing back these old recipes. The Egyptian one sounds super solid, though they're both interesting AF. Great piece man, cheers!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!
I would like to try Egyptian beer. I would also like to try American beer from Colonial Puritan times.
I'd drink them all. I wish someone would make them. I am in France and it's a good day if I can find Guinness.
This is how I make beer since I'm unemployed and have no equipment. I malt the grain from scratch, then grind it in pestle & mortar. I don't sparge or boil but I mash it sometimes all day then strain thru cheesecloth.. Easy, cheap beer, how cool is that?? :)
Why not sparge or boil?
@@awesomepumashoes i've got nothing against those things but I did it once and didn't notice any difference.
Thanks for the video, it's great, though it's sad to see that all this brewers boil their beer like you would today, whereas many many scholrs point logically out, that most ancient brewing was raw beer, herbs where added during mashing, and lautered and that's it, you don't get the proteins coagulated and filtered out with hops - tha raw beers were cloudy, yet more nutritional than boiled beers^^
Ancient Egyptian beer. I'd buy it.
Really interesting..Have a great Holiday!
Thanks so much! Cheers!
Well played sir! Very cool.
Very informative!
A question about the ratios of flavorings you're giving, they are related to what quantity of wort? (4pounds of dates...)
i wonder if you found any information of how they treated the yeast? i.e. was it taken from sourdough for baking and then feed sth sweet repeatedly to get rid of the souring bacterias etc... i just cant seem to find any good info on the actual process back then. great video! thanks!
Always interesting and fun.
Thanks so much. cheers!
Like everyone else is saying , I would like to give both a try, Very interesting Video Ryan, Cheers Buddy
The more the better haha. cheers Jerry!
I would try Egyption style beer.
I'd love to try both, for they spund tasty and unique.
Yes indeed! Cheers!
Old styles are the best! Always amazing to see brewers pulling out more and more ancients beer. There's a guy in Belgium/Switzerland researching the origins of Gueuze and Lambics trough old books in librairies (called Hors Catégorie Brewing in Facebook). Chica beer is such an intricate style too!
I'll have to check that out. May have to do a followup video with that and some Chinese recipe recreations. Cheers!
I would like both. Cheers
The more the better haha. cheers!
I would try both lol good one .....................................CHEERS
The more the merrier! Cheers!
Damn I wanna try both. Celtic first
The mandrake root would of made the Egyptian beer a potent narcotic
I have a question that google hasn't been able to help me. How did ancient brewers avoid bacteria infection? Today everyone is extremely careful to avoid it, but how could our ancestors brew drinkable beer without disinfectant and microbiology knowledge?
INTERESTING Dog Fish Head Brewing Co out of Milton Delaware Did that with the Midas Touch Recipe found in a Tomb in Egypt! Cheers 🍺🍺
Sounds really cool. Perhaps I can find an obscure bottle out there. cheers!

For me I have Irish ancestors so my first choice would be Celtic but at the same time I would definitely try the Egyptian as well afterwards.
Which beer would you rather try? Ancient Egyptian or Iron Age Celtic?
I'd like to try both. Love trying any beer. Cheers Tim
Why not both?
Iron age Celtic
Both preferably
This is so geeky, I love it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!
This video is not geeky.
@@vulcan1429Yeah it is. I really enjoyed it.
I would rather drink Egyptian beer. That sounds like the best.
You never mentioned sanitization. How did they do it?
I am trying to revive ancient celtic beer using their methods but I only seem to find modern methods of making their beer! My interest is more about the method itself, do you guys have any suggestion of material or literature where I could find more about it?
Where do you have all these informations from?
I keep wondering about the ancients creating beer must have been a real undertaking. They didn't have the quantity of ingredients like we do today. Also wasn't honey and dates a commodity for the wealthier Egyptians? What did the poor drink/ make if anything? Plus the Roman armies made beer on the move. The logistics of that must have been staggering.
How do you know all this.Where are your sources?
I with they hadn’t used the Chico strain on the Egyptian beer. The ancient beer would have been fermented by airborne yeast. Those yeasts would have not had a clean flavor profile. Maybe they should have used a Belgian strain, or just left it out to become inoculated naturally.
Think I would enjoy the Egyptian .
Too right, that one sounds pretty tasty. Cheers!
I would rather try Egyptian beer. I wonder what it would have been like to live in ancient Egypt where the people drink beer instead of water?
I'm glad we all live in this Modern Age of medical advancement. I'm glad we have Surgical and dental anesthesia. I'm very thankful I didn't live back in ancient or Medieval Times.
Both
Drunken Obama. Lol
Beer is SUPPOSED to be room temperature. It's only in America where it's refrigerated in order to disguise the poor taste.
Cloudy beers and beers containing sediment are also natural and taste better (bottle conditioned/cask beers)
Caller temperature makes sense.
