What's the oldest beer you've ever had? How about one made with a recipe 3,300 years old? Egtved Girl's brew claims to be that old, and the recipe dates back to the Bronze age, 1370 years BCE.

Made from a partnership between the Danish National Museum and Skands Brewery, it is based directly on the vintage stuff, residue samples taken from a bark beer bucket buried in an ancient coffin that was discovered in Denmark in 1921.

Would you  drink ancient beer?
