Beer sailed from India
Scientists are now working on reviving this 220-year-old beer, which is considered to be the oldest in the world, using the yeast found in bottles. The drink is called 'Wreck Beer' and will be released later this month.
The yeast was found on a merchant ship Sydney Cove, which sailed from Calcutta to Port Jackson and carried tea, rice and tobacco, as well as 40,000 liters of alcohol. He had a shipwreck near Tasmania during a storm in 1797.

Although most of the crew and cargo are rescued, something has been lost in the accident. Divers exploring the wreckage in the 1990s brought beer bottles to the land, which have since been deposited in the Museum and Gallery of Art of Queen Victoria in Launceston, Tasmania.

Yeast extraction
Three years ago David Thurrowgood, a conservator in the museum and a former chemist, began the process of extracting yeast from beer. Ice cold water at the bottom of the sea perfectly preserved the yeast for 200 years.
An international team of scientists has been gathered to study the contest of the bottle After getting to know the content, Thurrowgood turned to Australian brewers to revive the original. Haydon Morgan, chief brewer at the brewery James Squire said that the yeast was "very temperamental". The chefs for the taste of this beef said he was rich and smooth, with a spice of black currant and spice.
