So the Colosseum was residential apartments for more than twice as long as the USA has been a country 🤯

I surprised some of my US relatives a while ago by serving them beer from a local brewery about 8 years older than the US. And that is not even rare. Always weird to think how young that country is.

When I was in the UK, a tour guide said: "In the US, 100 years is a long time. In Europe, 100 miles is a long way."

Beer doesn't degrade in taste over all that time?

Beer yes, brewery no. :)
