Rewind: Did People Drink Alcohol in the First Century?

Rapp Report Daily episode 41 Did people drink alcohol in the first century? The answer is yes they did. Alcohol served a purpose in killing dysentery in water. In fact, people would have had to drink some level of alcohol to avoid being sick from the water. In the first century, they did not have water filtration as we do today.
