"In Mesopotamia, the oldest evidence of beer is on a 6000-year old Sumerian tablet which shows people drinking a beverage through reed straws from a communal bowl. Beer is also mentioned in the Epic of Gilgamesh, and a 3900-year old Sumerian poem honoring the brewing goddess Ninkasi contains the oldest surviving beer recipe, describing the production of beer from barley via bread. Beer became vital to all the grain-growing civilizations of classical antiquity, especially in Egypt and Mesopotamia. The Babylonian Code of Hammurabi required that tavern-keepers who diluted or overcharged for beer should be put to death."

The same is the case in Indus valley civilisation.
An intoxicating drink "somrus" is mentioned in the vedas,
the Hindu holy scriptures.
The juice that oozes out after cutting the flower-sprouts
of palmyra trees
is not only intoxicating but nutritious as well.
In Nigeria it is called palm-beer.

I wish Hammurabbis code is enacted in India,
'coz spurious liquor is rampant!

In this country people drank a very weak kind of beer or ale, and that includes the children, before the romans came, as the water (not spring water) made people ill otherwise
