I daresay that it requires a wider body of knowledge than the author of
the article that considers a "beer from the nineteenth century" "ancient".

I'd consider a medieval English brew, before the introduction of hops, "ancient".

Or a continental beer, with hops, from the same time period "ancient".

Perhaps "old" means cans before the intro of the pop top?
