Still, it wasn't until the 19th century that the science, technology and technique for producing bottom-fermented lagers came together as a methodical process, first at the Spaten ("Spade") brewery in Munich and eventually, around 1842, in the vowel-poor town of Plzen in Bohemia.
Now a team of researchers from the Vienna University of Technology have refined the technique at the ILL to examine and exploit gravity's quantum ways.
Not just any old periodic table, but the most photographically breathtaking version ever created, encased in sturdy plastic and enlivened by "lenticular technology, " the technique that uses linear lens elements laminated over a specially processed image to create a convincing 3D effect.
Breast cancer diagnosis at Derriford Hospital will be carried out using a new technique and upgraded technology, say the hospital's doctors.

But one team from the Georgia Institute of Technology have created a new technique that uses bodily movement, such as footfalls, to generate static electricity that can then be harnessed in quantities that could viably charge larger devices.
If proven, the technology could rival the current favoured technique for initiating fusion which uses superconducting magnets to contain and fuse the hydrogen nuclei.
Less than a month after I mentioned a new fingerprinting technique using electrostatic charges, forensic scientist Dr. Xanthe Spindler of the University of Technology Sydney in Australia has announced a wildly different new fingerprinting technique.
Ed Boyden of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is well-known for this technique.
He likened the radio technology to responsive web design, a technique which enables web pages to automatically change shape and configuration depending on what type of device they are being read on, such as a smartphone or tablet.
John Dabiri of the California Institute of Technology, for example, has used the technique to study the hunting behaviour of jellyfish.
The technique is rather disturbing, as the technology is removed through the ear or eye.
The citation for his knighthood credits Prof Wilmut with "revolutionising" biology through the cloning technique which underpins the science of stem cell technology.
The best-known of the new knights is Professor Wilmut, who is said to have revolutionised biology by successfully pioneering the cloning technique that underpins the science of stem cell technology.
But for mere mortals, Formela feels that to start a hot biotech firm, one has to find a way to match top scientists who have a cutting-edge technique with an important use for the new technology.
However, the technique is so close to the "cloning" technology used to create Dolly the sheep that it will raise difficult ethical questions for doctors.
Another technique for saving money will be to use proven technology already developed for other programs, such as the sensor suite on the new F-35 fighter or the landing gear on the B-2 bomber.

Dr Keisuke Kaji, a stem cell researcher at the Medical Research Council Centre for Regenerative Medicine in Edinburgh said the technique was a "great advance" in cell reprogramming technology.
Last year in April 2012, researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology created the first plastic solar cell (Forbes: New Technique Creates First Plastic Solar Cell) which they hope will help change requirements for manufacturing of organic printed electronics.
Lamarr termed the technique "frequency hopping, " a forerunner of the spread-spectrum technology that is used today in communications applications such as Wi-Fi.
The only technology the self-impregnating woman needs is a straw or turkey baster, and the basic technique hasn't changed much since Talmudic scholars debated the religious implications of insemination without sex in the fifth century.
