What does a 3,500-year-old Egyptian beer taste like?

We get a sneak peek into the lives of ancient Egyptians from the inscriptions on the pyramids and texts from those days, detailing how life was during the days of the Pharaohs. Dylan McDonnell, a man from the US state of Utah, got a taste of ancient Egypt, quite literally, from one such text. McDonnell, a homebrewer, has successfully recreated an ancient Egyptian beer using a recipe that is believed to be around 3,000-3,500 years old.
