Brewing is an ancient tradition
in Armenia.
According to Peotrovky's
records since Urartu
kingdom epoch ( IX-IIV BC ),
on the territory of Armenia
brewing was widespread.
The “karas” jags found during
the archeological excavations
of Karmir Blur ( Yerevan ) proved this
evidence, as they were filled with corn.
There were even found cuneiform
recipes of brewing and also
different objects, characterizing the
technology of brewing,
special containers for
preparation and
keeping beer and sweet malt.
“…Armenians kept corn,
barley, vegetables and barley
wine in the cellars of their houses.
They were pouring barley wine
in the vessel and putting thin reeds.
One should have barley
wine through the
thin reed….”
