喝啤酒最好的三個(gè)理由是什么？

1. It Tastes Good: Some people may argue that this is a controversial reason, since everyone has different tastebuds. We disagree. Since there are so many different flavors of beer out there, someone is bound to find something they like the taste of.

味道不錯(cuò)：有些人可能會(huì)說(shuō)這個(gè)原因存在爭(zhēng)議，因?yàn)槊總€(gè)人的口味都各不相同。這個(gè)我不認(rèn)為存在爭(zhēng)議，由于啤酒有很多不同的口味，因此人們一定會(huì)找到他們喜歡的味道。

2. It Makes You Feel Good: Just like other types of alcohol, beer can give you a nice buzz. But beer is typically relatively low in alcohol content, around 4-6%. This is great because it reduces the risk that alcohol will sneak up on you and leave you wasted, unless you’re drinking an unusually strong beer. Even more interesting, the Indiana Alcohol Research Center found that just the taste of beer, without any effect from alcohol, can trigger the production of dopamine, making you feel good.

讓你產(chǎn)生良好的感覺(jué)：就像其他類型的酒一樣，啤酒可以使您耳目一新。但啤酒的酒精含量通常相對(duì)較低，約為4-6%。這樣它可以降低酒精悄悄轉(zhuǎn)移到你身上讓你精疲力竭的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，除非你喝的是那種異常濃烈的啤酒。更有趣的是，印第安納州酒精研究中心發(fā)現(xiàn)，拋開(kāi)酒精的所以影響，僅僅是啤酒的味道，就能觸發(fā)多巴胺的產(chǎn)生，使你產(chǎn)生良好的感覺(jué)。

3. It’s Refreshing: There’s nothing like sipping on a cold, fizzy beer on a hot day. Though beer technically dehydrates you, it can taste incredibly refreshing. Light, bright flavors along with bubbling carbonation and cold temperatures make beer the perfect way to cool down.

令人耳目一新：沒(méi)有什么比在大熱天喝一杯冰鎮(zhèn)的泡沫啤酒更令人振奮的了。雖然啤酒從理論上講會(huì)讓你脫水，但它的味道卻是令人難以置信地清新。清淡明亮的口味加上冒泡的碳酸氣和低溫使啤酒成為降溫的最佳方式。

4. It’s Beautiful: Flavor isn’t all brewers focus on. Many beers have been perfectly brewed to pour a gorgeous color. From ruby-pink sour beers to cloudy, golden wheat beers with tall heads, beer can be beautiful. Along with the beer itself, beer packaging and tap handles can be works of art as more and more breweries work with artists to make their beer stand out. Check out our favorite tap handles here, and our favorite beer packaging here.

很漂亮：并非所有釀酒師都在關(guān)注風(fēng)味。許多啤酒都經(jīng)過(guò)精心的釀造，呈現(xiàn)出絢麗的色彩。從紅寶石色的酸啤酒到渾濁的金黃色小麥啤酒，都很漂亮。隨著越來(lái)越多的啤酒廠與藝術(shù)家合作，使啤酒脫穎而出，啤酒包裝和水龍頭手柄也可以成為藝術(shù)品。你可以看看我們最喜歡的水龍頭把手，還有我們最喜歡的啤酒包裝。

5. It has Limitless Diversity: You can find almost any flavor in the craft beer world. There are over 2,800 craft breweries in the United States, and each makes beer in its own, unique way. From banana bread beer to a Sriracha-flavored brew, the options are pretty much limitless.

有著無(wú)限的多樣性：你幾乎可以在精釀啤酒的世界里找到任何你想要的風(fēng)味。美國(guó)有2800多家精釀釀酒廠，每一家都以自己獨(dú)特的方式釀造啤酒。從香蕉面包啤酒到斯里拉查風(fēng)味的啤酒，選擇幾乎是無(wú)限的。

6. It’s Communal: Whether you or your friends are enjoying a pint at the local bar or you’re sharing cans at a house party, beer is a very social drink. It loosens your tongue to make discussion easier and provides you with a wealth of flavors to discuss. Best of all, it won’t get you too drunk if you are casually sipping, so that you won’t make a fool out of yourself (at least, not because of alcohol).

大眾化：無(wú)論你或你的朋友在當(dāng)?shù)氐木瓢衫锖纫黄访撈【?，還是在家庭聚會(huì)上分享罐裝啤酒，啤酒都是一種非常社交型的飲料。它使你的舌頭放松，聊天變得更輕松，并為你提供了豐富的交談氛圍。最重要的是，如果你只是不經(jīng)意地啜飲，它不會(huì)讓你喝得太醉，這樣你也就不會(huì)出丑（至少不會(huì)出現(xiàn)醉酒的丑態(tài)）。

7. It’s Historical: Beer was consumed by ancient farmers who built the first agrarian civilizations, Egyptian workers as they toiled along the nile river, and is even thought by experts to have been the cause of civilization as we know it. By imbibing in beer, you’re following in an ancient tradition that brought joy to people’s lives throughout history.

歷史悠久：啤酒曾經(jīng)是古代農(nóng)民享用的，他們建立了第一個(gè)農(nóng)業(yè)文明，埃及工人在尼羅河邊的勞作，甚至被專家認(rèn)為是我們所知道的文明誕生的原因。喝啤酒，是遵循了一個(gè)古老的傳統(tǒng)，在整個(gè)歷史長(zhǎng)河中給人們的生活帶來(lái)了歡樂(lè)。

8. It’s Cultural: Many countries, states, and even cities have their own specialty when it comes to beer. For example, England is famous for its cask ales and California for its California common beer. Drinking your favorite local brew and sharing it with others gives you a sense of identity and community.

具有文化色彩：許多國(guó)家、州甚至城市在啤酒方面都有自己的特色。例如，英國(guó)以桶裝啤酒而聞名，而加利福尼亞以加利州普通啤酒而聞名。喝你最喜歡的本地啤酒，并與他人分享，會(huì)讓你有一種認(rèn)同感和社區(qū)感。

9. It Makes You More Creative: If we need a little boost in creativity (and we’re not on the job), we love sipping on a beer to get our minds going. Beer has been proven to boost creativity by making you feel more relaxed and less worried about what’s going on around you. This enhanced creativity can make you better in social situations and artistic ones as well.

讓人更有創(chuàng)造力：如果我們需要提升一點(diǎn)創(chuàng)造力的時(shí)候（這里不是說(shuō)與工作有關(guān)的創(chuàng)造力），我們喜歡喝一口啤酒來(lái)讓我們的思維活躍起來(lái)。事實(shí)證明，啤酒可以讓你更放松，不去擔(dān)心身邊發(fā)生的事情，從而提高創(chuàng)造力。這種增強(qiáng)的創(chuàng)造力可以讓你在社交場(chǎng)合和藝術(shù)場(chǎng)合表現(xiàn)得更好。

Peter Chou, 500+ different beers tried

嘗試過(guò)500多種不同的啤酒

Assuming taste itself is not a deciding factor. Here are some good reasons:
1. Variety of experience - there exist dozens of beer types and thousands of different beers. If trying something new for the simple experience of it is a worthy reason, beer is a great choice because of the large number of tastes available at relatively low cost.
2. History and Lore - beer is an old tradition (which has gained tremendously in popularity in the last decade) and brewed all over the world. Becoming a beer drinker can open up your world and teach you to appreciate the story behind different beers from different places, and deepen your cultural understanding. Many cities with strong beer culture have over a dozen craft breweries. In some smaller cities, the good brewery may be among the best local attractions, but you would not think of visiting if you are not a beer drinker. Sometimes having a good beer sextion is a noticeable strength of a good restaurant, but if you are not a beer drinker, this point would be lost to you when you dine there (this is of course typically more common with wines).
3. Socializing - drinking alcohol of any kind is good for socializing but again, for the reason of its lower cost, beer is more easily affordable for more people than wine or liquor.

假設(shè)口味本身不是決定因素。以下則是一些很好的理由：
1.體驗(yàn)豐富：有幾十種啤酒類型和數(shù)千種不同的啤酒。如果有必要為了簡(jiǎn)單的體驗(yàn)而嘗試一些新的東西，那么啤酒是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇，因?yàn)槠【频目谖敦S富，成本相對(duì)較低。
2.歷史和傳說(shuō)：啤酒有著古老的傳統(tǒng)并在過(guò)去的十年中獲得了極大的普及，已經(jīng)在世界各地釀造。喝啤酒的可以有助于打開(kāi)新世界，可以欣賞不同地方的啤酒背后的故事，還能加深對(duì)文化的理解。許多有著濃郁啤酒文化的城市都有十幾家精釀釀酒廠。在一些小城市，優(yōu)質(zhì)的啤酒廠可能是當(dāng)?shù)刈詈玫木包c(diǎn)之一，但如果你不是一個(gè)啤酒愛(ài)好者，你就不會(huì)想到去參觀。有時(shí)，選擇好的啤酒是一家好餐館的顯著優(yōu)勢(shì)，但如果你不是一個(gè)啤酒愛(ài)好者，那么當(dāng)你在那里用餐時(shí)，這一點(diǎn)優(yōu)勢(shì)就失去了（當(dāng)然，這些在葡萄酒中更常見(jiàn)）。
3.社交：喝任何種類的酒都有利于社交，但同樣，由于其成本較低，啤酒比葡萄酒或白酒更容易為更多人所接受。

Bart?omiej Macieszczuk, I love to try new beers and collect bottle caps.

我喜歡嘗試新的啤酒和收集瓶蓋。

Drinking beer is not like drinking a juice, soda or water. To truly taste the beer of your choice you need to be relaxed. The atmosphere of drinking alcohol should be pleasant, because the alcohol makes your character stronger (for example lovely people comes ever more lovely, and the bad people get worse).
You move closer your nose to the beer and smell it, trying to find its scents. You can find such pretty scents as honey, flowers, coffee, chocolate, banana, but also - if it comes to a bad produced or kept beer - iron,
Then comes the best part. You sip some beer and try to figure out the taste that comes at your tongue. Than, just after the first sip you must breathe out the air to feel even more scents, that were hard to recognize at the “nose step”. After that you can drink normally, being happy you know the beer of your choice.
Of course all this it matters what kind of drinking you like, because when you are trying to get boozed, these steps doesn’t matter, so you can buy cheaper beer and still be “happy” (and got a strong hangover).

1.喝啤酒不像喝果汁、蘇打水或水。要真正品嘗到你選擇的啤酒，你需要放松身心。喝酒的氣氛應(yīng)該是愉快的，因?yàn)榫凭珪?huì)使你的性格更突出（例如，可愛(ài)的人變得越來(lái)越可愛(ài)，壞人變得更壞）。
2.你把鼻子靠近啤酒，聞一聞，試圖找到它的味道。你可以聞到蜂蜜、鮮花、咖啡、巧克力、香蕉等美妙的氣味，但如果是生產(chǎn)或保存不良的啤酒，也可以聞到鐵銹味。
3.然后是最好的部分。你啜了一口啤酒，試著弄清楚你舌尖上的味道。更何況，在喝了第一口之后，你必須呼吸一下，才能感受到更多的氣味，而這些氣味在“鼻腔這一步”很難辨認(rèn)出來(lái)。之后你就可以正常飲酒了，并為你了解了你所選擇的啤酒而感到欣喜。
當(dāng)然，所有這些都與你喜歡什么樣的酒有關(guān)，因?yàn)楫?dāng)你想喝得酩酊大醉時(shí)，這些步驟并不重要，所以你可以買到更便宜的啤酒，而且仍然很開(kāi)心還伴隨著一種強(qiáng)烈的宿醉感。

Neil Highnam, Had a few...thousand

喝過(guò)幾千次

1997 at 11 o’clock when the Duke of Wellington opposite Turnpike Lane tube station in London belched open its doors.
I used to love being the first person in the pub. I would read the paper or play pool, watch the distant outside world happening and wait to see which delinquent would be the next to step out of the sunlight into the Welly’s gloomy interior.
The first beer is always the livliest tasting, the one that makes you utter a satisfied “aaahhhh” under your breath after the first sip has trickled down your throat.
English pubs are one of the fondest memories of my youth but they’ve changed beyond recognition in recent years.
Gone are the pool tables. The smoky air has gone leaving smokers huddled outside “at least 2 meters from the entrance, gentlemen”. Gone are the characters. There are no modern-day Peter O’Tooles rubbing shoulders with market traders, theatre staff and local mobsters in Soho’s Coach and Horses.
Chains of sterile, characterless cafés have replaced the pubs (unless the golden arches got there first). “Drink sensibly” the beer ads now have to tell us but there’s no warning in Starbucks telling you to “consume very infrequently” the 600 calorie Java Chip Frappuccino.
Becoming overweight and diabetic is fine as long as you don’t achieve this through alcohol.
Now I can only reminisce about the pubs of my younger years.
Nowadays, the first beer of the day is a rarity for me. As rare as the kind of pubs which provided a home from home for me.
I wonder why they fell from grace.
And above all, I wonder how I could hit a pool ball so straight at 4 o’clock, many beers after my first.
At least my liver is starting to like me again.

1997年11點(diǎn)，倫敦Turnpike Lane地鐵站對(duì)面的惠靈頓公爵開(kāi)了門。
我以前喜歡當(dāng)光臨酒吧的第一個(gè)人。我會(huì)看看報(bào)紙或打臺(tái)球，看著遙遠(yuǎn)的外部世界發(fā)生變化，等著看下一個(gè)從陽(yáng)光下走出來(lái)進(jìn)入水井陰暗內(nèi)部的罪犯會(huì)是誰(shuí)。
第一杯啤酒總是最愜意的，當(dāng)?shù)谝豢诰茝哪愕暮韲道锪飨聛?lái)后，你會(huì)在呼吸中發(fā)出一聲滿意的“啊啊哈”。
英國(guó)酒吧是我年輕時(shí)最美好的回憶之一，但近年來(lái)它們已經(jīng)變得面目全非。
臺(tái)球桌不見(jiàn)了。煙霧彌漫的空氣消失了，讓吸煙者擠在外面，“吸煙區(qū)距離入口至少2米，先生們”。那些人物已經(jīng)一去不復(fù)返了。再也看不到現(xiàn)代的彼得·奧圖爾斯和市場(chǎng)交易者、市場(chǎng)商人、劇院工作人員和當(dāng)?shù)睾趲头肿幽缃吁?了。
連鎖的無(wú)菌、毫無(wú)特色的咖啡館取代了酒吧。啤酒廣告現(xiàn)在必須告訴我們理智飲酒，但星巴克沒(méi)有警告你“少消費(fèi)”600卡路里的可可碎片星冰樂(lè)。
只要您不因喝酒精達(dá)到超重和患糖尿病的程度就可以了。
現(xiàn)在我只能在回憶中見(jiàn)到我年輕時(shí)的酒吧了。
如今，一天中的第一杯啤酒對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)已經(jīng)很少見(jiàn)了。像那種為我提供如家般感覺(jué)的酒吧一樣罕見(jiàn)。
我不知道他們?yōu)槭裁磿?huì)失寵。
最重要的是，在喝完第一杯啤酒后，我又喝了很多啤酒，但我想知道我怎么能在4點(diǎn)鐘把臺(tái)球打得這么好，至少我的肝臟又開(kāi)始喜歡我了。

Christian Gebhardt
I honestly can admit that I like to drink beer, I think and find it tasty, although some people do not tolerate the taste of beer at all. In the World there are many varieties and types of this drink, I like German beer, it is real, high-quality, lively.
Small amounts of B vitamins are contained in beer: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), mesoinositol (B8), cyanocobalamin (B12) and niacin (B3) . It also contains folic acid (B9) and its derivatives (folates). Vitamins pass into beer from malt, in which they are actively formed during the germination of barley grains and stored during frying. A divine drink when you sit in a restaurant with sea or ocean views, enjoy the scenery and sip a cold beer.

老實(shí)說(shuō)，我喜歡喝啤酒，我認(rèn)為它很好喝，盡管有些人根本不能容忍啤酒的味道。世界上有很多品種和類型的啤酒，我喜歡德國(guó)啤酒，因?yàn)樗钦鎸?shí)、高品質(zhì)且活潑的。
啤酒中含有少量維生素B：硫胺素（B1）、核黃素（B2）、泛酸（B5）、吡哆醇（B6）、生物素（B7）、中胚層肌醇（B8）、氰鈷胺（B12）和煙酸（B3）。它還含有葉酸（B9）及其衍生物（葉酸）。維生素從麥芽進(jìn)入啤酒中，在大麥發(fā)芽過(guò)程中形成維生素，并在隨后過(guò)程中被儲(chǔ)存起來(lái)。當(dāng)你坐在一家有海景的餐廳里，一邊欣賞著風(fēng)景，一邊喝一口冰鎮(zhèn)啤酒， 那感覺(jué)太妙了！

Gitr - Social Drinking App,
The health benefits of beer: Following are 3 scientifically proved reasons why you should drink beer!
1. Beer keeps your kidneys healthy. A Finnish study singled out beer among other alcoholic beverages, finding that it was better for your kidneys. In fact, each bottle of beer you drink reduces the risk of developing kidney stones by 40%.
2. Beer can increase your vitamin B levels. Beer contains several B vitamins (B1, B2, B6 and B12). A Dutch study found that beer drinkers had 30 percent higher levels of vitamin B6 than their non-drinking counterparts, and levels that were twice as high as those of wine drinkers. Beer is also a generous source of vitamin B12, an anti-anaemic factor not found in many foods.
3. Beer reduces your risk of a heart attack. Beer drinkers have a 40 to 60 percent reduced risk of suffering a heart attack compared with non-beer drinkers"

啤酒對(duì)健康的好處：以下是3個(gè)是經(jīng)科學(xué)證明為什么你應(yīng)該喝啤酒的理由！
1、啤酒能保持腎臟健康。芬蘭的一項(xiàng)研究在一系列酒精飲料中挑出了啤酒，發(fā)現(xiàn)啤酒對(duì)腎臟更有益。事實(shí)上，每喝一瓶啤酒，患腎結(jié)石的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)就會(huì)降低40%。
2、啤酒可以增加你的維生素B水平。啤酒含有多種維生素B（B1、B2、B6和B12）。荷蘭的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，飲用啤酒者比不喝啤酒的人的維生素B6含量高出30%，而且是葡萄酒飲用者的兩倍。啤酒也是維生素B12的豐富來(lái)源，維生素B12是許多食物中所沒(méi)有的抗貧血因子。
3、啤酒可以降低心臟病發(fā)作的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。與不喝啤酒的人相比，喝啤酒的人患心臟病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)降低了40%到60%?！?/b>
