入伏以来，骄阳炙烤着大地，行色匆匆的路人，急于赶往地铁或商场，以躲避高温。偶尔的阵雨，也不能给城市降温。这个时候，让人不得不感叹：这世界惟空调与啤酒不可辜负啊。

After coming into the dog days, the ground has been burning and people are all in hustle and bustle to avoid the extreme heat outside. Sometimes there comes a shower, which cannot cool the city. This is the moment that strongly reminds people of the air conditioner and beer.

提起啤酒，我们都会想到德国。据统计，每个德国人平均每年都要喝掉138公斤的啤酒，这个数据真是吓到了小编。水，麦芽，啤酒花，酵母，只用这四种简单的原料，就让德国人酿制啤酒上百年。你可以说他们古板不知变通，但这就是德国啤酒，这就是德国人的坚持。

When it comes to the the beer, Germany may be the first nation occurs to us. It is reported that each German drinks up 138 kilograms beer every year, which really scared me. Water, malt, hops and yeast, only these four simple materials keep the Germany brewed beer going hundreds of years. You can say they are conventional and stubborn, but this is the German beer, this is the persistence of the German.

来自奥地利的啤酒师，Wolfgang Sesser，在德国学习了十几年的酿酒技艺，如今他把这份手艺带到了中国。

Wolfgang Sesser, an Ausrian brewer, who has been studying the brewing technique for more than 10 years in Germany, and now he has brought this craft to China.

麦芽经过粉碎、糖化、过滤，然后在煮沸的过程中添加啤酒花，冷却后再加入酵母，就可以进入啤酒的发酵阶段。从开始到制作完成，要喝到这杯风味醇厚的啤酒，至少需要4周的时间。

After crushing, saccharification, and filtering, then add hops in the process of boiling, then add yeast after cooling, and then it’s time to get into the beer fermentation stage. It needs at least 4 weeks from the beginning to the final product if you want to drink the beer with mellow flavor.

每一次酿制啤酒，口味都会有细微的变化。就像工匠在打磨作品一样，不可能保证每一件都一模一样。正是这些细微的差别，才造就了每杯鲜酿啤酒的与众不同，酿酒师享受的，也许就是整个过程中带来的新鲜感与成就感。

There will be slight differences each time when you drink it, which is like the craftsman refining his work that it’s impossible to ensure each one to remain the same. And it is the slight differences that make the brewed beer different. And for the brewer, maybe it is the sense of achievement and novelty that make them so addicted in this process.

现实生活中，有很多人已经将啤酒文化当作一种快餐式的“灌酒文化”。殊不知，真正的好啤酒，不可以豪饮，也是需要细琢慢品。当面对一杯纯正的鲜酿啤酒时，记得静下心来品一品，感受苦中带香的细腻与品味。

In real life, there are a lot of people regard the beer culture as a kind of fast food like "liquor culture". While few knows that the purely good brewed beer deserves tender tastes to feel the bitterness integrated in the fine fragrance.
