What if the beakers carried malt spirits?
What if the beakers carried mead?
Ancient beakers and the history of mead
Signatures of bee pollen and fermented honey “wines” have been extricated from the beakers.

Mead would have been more suited to people on the move.
No crops needed.
Beer/malt spirits might have come into play after conquest.

Pour in the liquid, seal the beaker with beeswax, let the fermentation process happen, break the wax seal...
Party time, boys!
