Not beer, corn liquor. Know affectionately to the Native Americans as “firewater”.

"Did early Southwestern Indians ferment corn and make beer?"

If they did, I'd like to see that recipe. It's really hard to make beer from corn. You can make whiskey from corn, but beer is made from mainly barley.

The Apache fermented corn and made a liquor called Tizwin according to "The Apaches - Eagles Of The Southwest" by Donald E. Worcester.

According to the records of the Army and Indian Agents in Arizona in the late 1800's they were pretty unmanageable when they were on it.

No more firewater for you, Tonto!

All corn must be ground up and made into ethanol so we can continue not only to pay high prices for motion lotion, but for corn and taters too!

Honestly I have always wanted to make just start leaving fruits and veggies out for long periods of time to start the fermentation process and make my own home brew. It’s be a smelly operation though.

“The belief among some archeologists that Europeans introduced alcohol to the Indians of the American Southwest may be faulty.”

The Europeans with their OCPD thought the Indains to abuse alcohol.

Since we KNOW the Aztecs had liquor, pulque, I would be very surprised if the rest of the Indians didn’t have some sort of fermented beverage.
