It wasn't awful, mind you, and it probably isn't so bad as long as you're not thinking it'll resemble normal beer, but I remember thinking it was just too bizarre. I love the concept, though, and it's definitely worth the effort no matter how it tastes.

Many ancient cultures didn't isolate yeast for fermenting beverages, and the fermentation's had both yeast and lactic acid producing bacteria, which would result in a less alcoholic brew with more of a sour bite.

I have only been able to try the Midas Touch based on the beer remnants found from ancient Babylon and am dying to try some of the others. One question, though: if beer = win, and chocolate = win, then is a chocolate beer win x 2 or win squared? Well written!
