Beer is one of the oldest beverages in the world, with a history dating back thousands of years. It is believed that the first brewers were the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia.who brewed beer from barley grains and water about 5,000 years ago.
The beer It was also popular in ancient Egypt, where it was made from barley and other grains, and was considered a sacred drink (truly, not like now that we consider it sacred but in another sense).
Over time, the beer spread throughout the world, with each region developing its own version of the drink. For example, the Germans brew wheat beers, while the Belgians are known for their strong, fruity beers.
Today, beer is one of the most popular alcoholic beverages in the world, being produced and consumed all over the planet. According to statistics, it is estimated that around 188 billion liters of beer are consumed worldwide every year.. But are there bad ones? You can take it for sure.
The beer that we all think is the one that lowers our average
In Spain there is a fairly widespread joke and it is that la Cruzcampo, a typical beer from Seville and its surroundings, it can be many things, but no beer. This for some is a sacrilege and for others a truth like a temple.
And it is that for tastes, colors. The defenders of the Cruzcampo say that if you drink it in the heart of the Andalusian capital you will find all the nuances that make it refreshing and delicious, the detractors defend that not even in the middle of the desert did they drink one. We believe that all beers deserve a chance.
Although that is not what they think in one of the largest websites in the world where beers are rated and rankings are made with the best… and the worst. According to this list, The worst beer in the world is Miller Genuine Draft 64, an American lager that has an average of 1.6 out of 10.
The first places among the worst beers in the world are occupied mostly by low-alcohol light-type beers, something that for the most purists cannot even be considered beer.
Although the list is covered by American brews (everyone knows that they are not very good at making beers, there we Europeans win on the street), among the 250 worst beers in the world only there is a Spanish brand that ranks 159 and that is Cruzcampo with an average of 2.52. Do you agree?
