Cool video of making beer in a wooden trough called a (word I can understand through the accent) modeled after a bronze age vessel.

Re: Bronze Age Beer
I'm curious what it tastes like. The descriptions in the video varied quite a bit. Who has a trough 
Thanks!

Or a boar?
I had a friend in college from Bolivia. He told me that people there would make a mash out of corn. In order to induce fermentation, they would gather around in spit in the vessel. Yeast in your mouth would get it going. Sometimes they would grab some of the corn, chew it and spit it back.
