I guess that the first beer was what we now call a sourdough starter. So something like pancake (american) batter.

- dogma1138 11y agoProbably quite close if you want to recreate it I mix a thick stout like Guinness with something like semolina or wheat middlings or maybe groat and boil it, won't taste good but it sure will fill a man. Beer has very low caloric value a pint has on average 150 kcal or so, so you need something much more nutritious than that (500-800 kcal per serving) to make it worth your while, especially when you were living in a time where your daily caloric expenditure could be easily twice what is today.
