Archaeological excavations have exposed artifacts and materials used for the production of beer in Greece dating back to the Bronze Age (3,300 to 1,200 BC).[1]
The first modern Greek brewery was founded in 1864. Greek beer has become a part of the local culture and expanded beyond its borders as demand has increased.[2] Although wine still has the highest consumption rates within Greece,[3][4] beer has increased its market share and become an important industry for the Greek economy, providing more than 60,000 jobs in 2005.[5]
