Wish any adult Happy 100th Birthday with a card featuring a mug of beer sitting in front of a mini keg on a dark gold background with brown text. Inside like all Greeting Card Universe cards can be personalized by you if you wish. Design by Laurie Schneider, elements by Tracy Barns. A fun fact about beer when archaeologists discovered a four-thousand-year old Mesopotamian clay tablet, they were naturally curious to learn what it was all about. So a good deal of scholarly effort was put into the task of deciphering its cryptic markings. As it turns out, the ancient Mesopotamian’s were recording a recipe for beer. And not just any recipe, but a formula handed down from the god Enki himself. This probably came as no surprise to the archaeologists, since the subject of beer pops up regularly in their work. Images of people brewing, storing, and drinking beer are found in ruined cities and forgotten tombs scattered throughout the ancient world.
