No one really knows which was produced first, beer or wine. The discovery of late Stone Age beer jugs has established the fact that intentionally fermented beverages existed at least as early as the Neolithic period (cir. 10,000 B.C.) and it has been suggested that beer may have preceded bread as a staple; wine clearly appeared in Egyptian pictographs around 4,000 B.C.

It's no longer positive which got here first, beer or wine; however, proof suggests that beer might've developed earlier than wine. Ancient archives exhibit that people in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) commenced making beer around 5,000 BCE, while proof of wine-making in Georgia goes back to about 6,000 BCE. So, it looks like beer got here first; however, we cannot say for sure.
