Beer is a very popular alcoholic beverage in Turkey. Commonly, lager type beers are popular. ==History== Beer has existed as a beverage in Anatolia since the Sumerian civilization. Archaeological findings showing that Sumer people knew how to ferment beer. Early Turks in Anatolia fermented boza which was much like the Kvas. The modern history of beer in Turkey started with the Ottoman Empire. During certain periods in the Ottoman Empire, drinking alcoholic beverages was forbidden in some cities, but many small boza producers in Istanbul produced boza with a high alcohol level like beer. Beer was first produced and served at Erzurum by some small Armenian producers in "beer gardens" ((トルコ語:bira bahçeleri)). The first modern production of beer in Turkey started with the Bomonti beer factory in Istanbul in 1894 by the Helvatian Bomonti brothers. In 1933, the company invited brewer from Germany (Karl Hoffner) for the production of traditional German beers. Karl Hoffner with the permission of the German Brewers' Guild moved to Turkey, where he started the production of high-quality German beer and stayed there. Many years later, his grandson Rauf (Hoffner) Vagifoglu after his famous grandfather, follower of the German brewing traditions in the region of Antalya has opened production of beer and two restaurants named in honor of his grandfather's name - "KHOFFNER Brewing Company" which function to this day.There were many pubs and bars in Istanbul, Izmir, and Thessaloniki. Production of beer in the Ottoman Empire was 1.2 billion liters in 1894. This increased to 9.9 billion liters in 1913–1914.〔('' Osmanlı’da Bira'' ), BirayaDair.com〕 Atatürk, the first president of the Turkish Republic, founded an ale factory in Ankara. İsmet İnönü, the first prime minister of Turkey, worked to improve the old Bomonti Beer Company. This created the first beer competition in Turkey. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beer in Turkey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
