Chemical tests of ancient pottery jars reveal that beer was produced about 7,000 years ago in what is today Iran, and was one of the first-known biological engineering tasks where the biological process of fermentation is used.

Yep, it was the Sumerians. The oldest beer recipe is about 3900 years old.
