當今新冠肺炎疫情猖獗,來點苦中作樂吧。今天4/7/2020是國家啤酒節National Beer Day。

National Beer Day is celebrated on the anniversary of the date that beer once again began being served, in 1933, after over thirteen years of Prohibition. Franklin Roosevelt signed the Cullen-Harrison Act on March 22, 1933, which said that beer with up to 3.2% alcohol content by weight could again be sold, as long as states passed their own laws allowing the selling of beer. After signing the law Roosevelt said, "I think this would be a good time for a beer," and the new law went into effect on April 7. People gathered outside of breweries and taverns the night before beer became legal, waiting for their opening at midnight. On the first National Beer Day, 1.5 million barrels of beer were consumed. Prohibition was not fully repealed until December, when the Eighteenth Amendment was done away with, and the Twenty-first Amendment went into effect. The modern-day celebration of National Beer Day started in 2009, after Justin Smith started a Facebook page for it. The day has since been recognized by elected officials.

Beer making can be traced to about 6,000 years ago in ancient Sumeria. At the time beer was cloudy because of lack of filtering, and it was drunk through a straw. By 2000 BCE, the Babylonians were brewing 20 types of beer. The Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans made beer, although wine became much more popular with the Romans. They considered beer to be the drink of the Barbarians; beer was only popular on the edges of the Empire. Germanic groups were brewing beer by 800 BCE.

Because of contamination, beer was a much safer drink than water during the Middle Ages; it was drunk by people of all ages from all classes. The Catholic Church even got involved with brewing beer, and abbeys were testing grounds for improvements in brewing. Beginning in the ninth century, in Germany, hops began being introduced, standards were set up for beer, and it began being mass-brewed. The 1516 Beer Purity Law—Reinheitsgebot—said a certain level of quality must be met for German beer. All beer could only be made with water, hops, malted barley, malted wheat, and yeast.

In the 1800s, Louis Pasteur discovered the role of yeast in the fermentation process, as well as pasteurization. Soon came along automatic bottling, commercial refrigeration, and railroads. All of these advancements allowed beer to be more easily produced and distributed. By 1880, there were 3,200 breweries in the United States. Prohibition closed them, but today there are almost as many breweries as there were in 1880, aided in part by the rise in the number of small craft breweries.

How to Observe

Celebrate the day by drinking beer! The best way to do it is to enter a bar right at midnight, just as it was done in 1933. In reality, to stay true to the spirit of the day, beer should only be drank if it is 3.2% alcohol or less. There are many brands of beer you could try, from many different breweries. Try a craft beer you've never had before, or do some homebrewing.

--------------看看Google的翻譯-------------------

在禁酒已有十三年之久的1933年,再次開始供應啤酒的周年紀念日是慶祝國家啤酒日的周年紀念日。富蘭克林·羅斯福(Franklin Roosevelt)於1933年3月22日簽署了《庫倫-哈裏森法案》,其中規定,隻要各州通過了允許銷售啤酒的法律,就可以再次出售酒精含量按重量計高達3.2%的啤酒。羅斯福簽署法律後說:“我認為這是喝啤酒的好時機,”新法律於4月7日生效。人們在啤酒成為合法的前一天晚上聚集在釀酒廠和酒館外麵,等待開張。在午夜。在首個“全國啤酒節”上,消耗了150萬桶啤酒。直到12月,第18條修正案被廢止,第21條修正案生效後,禁令才被完全廢除。賈斯汀·史密斯(Justin Smith)在Facebook上建立了相應頁麵之後,現代的國家啤酒日慶祝活動始於2009年。此後,這一天已被民選官員認可。啤酒釀造可以追溯到大約6000年前的古代Sumeria。當時,由於缺乏過濾,啤酒渾濁,然後用吸管喝了。到公元前2000年,巴比倫人開始釀造20種啤酒。埃及人,希臘人和羅馬人釀造啤酒,盡管葡萄酒在羅馬人中越來越受歡迎。他們認為啤酒是野蠻人的飲料。啤酒僅在帝國的邊緣流行。日耳曼人的團體在公元前800年開始釀造啤酒。由於受到汙染,在中世紀,啤酒比水更安全。各個年齡段的人們都喝醉了。天主教會甚至參與釀造啤酒,修道院正在測試改善釀造的場所。從九世紀開始,在德國開始引入啤酒花,建立啤酒標準,並開始大量釀造啤酒。 《 1516年啤酒純度法》(Reinheitsgebot)規定,德國啤酒必須達到一定的質量水平。所有啤酒隻能用水,啤酒花,麥芽大麥,麥芽小麥和酵母製成。1800年代,路易斯·巴斯德(Louis Pasteur)發現了酵母在發酵過程以及巴氏殺菌中的作用。很快出現了自動裝瓶,商業製冷和鐵路運輸。所有這些進步使啤酒更易於生產和分銷。到1880年,美國共有3200家啤酒廠。禁酒令關閉了它們,但如今,小型啤酒廠的數量增加,在一定程度上使啤酒廠的數量與1880年的數量一樣。如何觀察喝啤酒慶祝這一天!最好的方法是像1933年一樣,在午夜時分進入酒吧。實際上,要忠於當今的精神,隻有酒精度在3.2%以下的啤酒才可以喝。您可以嚐試來自許多不同啤酒廠的許多品牌的啤酒。嚐試從未有過的精釀啤酒,或做些自釀啤酒。
