    Reminds me of this sign in the bathroom at a local bar:

    Some of our earliest records are beer recipes. Not only is 1862 thousands of years too late, there wasn’t even anything of note that year. Totally arbitrary ass-pull.

      There have been holes found in neolithic caves with what appears to be beer yeast. The only organism we’ve been that symbiotic with longer is dogs.

      My not very generous guess is someone wanted to give the impression of something being really old without a clue of what really old is.

      Like it wouldn’t surprise me if it turned out bread was accidentally invented when someone screwed up an attempt to make beer.

        Hell, some people have theorized that civilization started because you need to settle down for a while to brew beer.
