Between 3500 and 3100 BC, in Godin Tepe in the western Iranian Zagros Mountains, the first concrete chemical evidence of beer manufactured from barley was found. It may potentially be even older, dating back to the first cereal cultivation around 10,000 BC, though this has not been verified.

We thought Power Rank beers brewed in Louisiana might be entertaining. Even though I don't like beer, if I do sample one, it must be crisp, light, citrusy, and pleasant. Having said that, Patrick Frey, our Weather Liaison and Sports Director, will be the only person voting on this.

Patrick's Best Louisiana Beers:

4. Louisiana Lager (Crying Eagle Brewing)

3. Reve Coffee Stout (Parish Brewing Company)

2. Cane Break (Parish Brewing Company)

1. Ghost In The Machine (Parish Brewing Company)

Honorable Mention: Voodoo (Tin Roof Brewing)
