Hi, All!

It has been a long time since I read "Paleolithic Prescription," by Eaton,
et al., but if I remember correctly they did address the alcohol
question.  I believe they said early Hunter Gatherers moved around a
lot--as they cleaned out an area of game and the gathered food.  In
general, they did not stay in one place long enough to make alcoholic
beverages.  I don't think they had good storage utensils for liquids, either.
