Lisco's American Life

249. Beer Festival preparations (thanks to Lan Shiyu again

Li Ke got up early in the morning, drove Zhang Li to school, and then returned to the ranch with Zhang Li's farewell kiss.

At this time, David had made preparations according to yesterday's arrangement and was ready to set off at any time.

Last night, as soon as Lisko got home, David came over to him and reminded him that the annual Denver Beer Festival was about to begin.

Lisko only realized it later. He had made arrangements early to bring the dark beer produced by the ranch to this beer festival. He hoped that it would be accepted by everyone and that the beer regularly produced by the ranch would have a clear identity in the future.

Sales volume increased.

David took the record book and walked straight to Lisko.

"Sir, we only have thirteen thousand bottles of beer left."

There was some anxiety in his expression, because this kind of reserve is completely insufficient for the consumption of the Oktoberfest. You know, the Oktoberfest is usually held for three days, with tourists and locals participating, and the number of people is as high as 100,000.

This reserve may be used up in one day, but Lisko did not consider it clearly. In the first year of planting rye on the pasture, no one was very clear about the prospects of this plant, so they deliberately controlled the quantity, and the beer they brewed was only 30,000.

Multiple bottles, the consumption of the cowboys during this period, plus Les and Rooster purchasing some for themselves, and several parties, they drank more than half of the amount.

"There is nothing we can do now. This is our first year, and many places are not ready. Let's just do it. Once our reputation is established, we will increase production later."

Lisko rubbed his temples with a headache. There were still many things he couldn't think of.

"Okay, sir, we'll set off first."

David nodded and waved to the loaded semi-truck behind him. The car started to drive slowly. David got into the pickup truck driven by the cowboys behind, and the convoy left the ranch.

Lisko made an appointment with his father-in-law, Zhang You, and planned to take him to see the Denver Beer Festival, one of the three largest beer festivals in the world. So Zhangyou was waiting at home very early. When he saw Lisko coming back, he didn't stop and was already sitting there.

Lisko's pickup truck is in the truck.

Lisko didn't waste any time, started the engine directly, and kept up with the team in front.

The Denver Oktoberfest is the largest beer festival event in the United States, usually held for three days. More than 300 years ago, a group of immigrants from Germany, the "home of beer", settled in the United States and founded cities.

The United States not only produced light beer that was comparable to similar products in Germany, but also created a new variety - American dark beer. Since then, "drinking" in beer halls has become one of the main leisure methods for Americans, and beer halls have also become a social

and important places for gatherings. At that time, some large beer halls also served as hotels. Franklin, who once lived in Philadelphia, famously said: "Without good wine, you don't live a good life." Although Philadelphia has a beer tradition

It originated from Germany, but Americans are open-minded when it comes to choosing beer. They not only brew and drink it themselves, but also import high-quality beer from all over the world. One of the most obvious examples is that the annual consumption of Belgian beer in one American city exceeds that of the Belgian capital.

Brussels. This also shows from another aspect that Americans drink beer not for pleasure, but for quality.

Every year on this day, many celebrities and beer lovers from all over the world come to participate, which greatly boosts the local economic benefits of Denver.

Moreover, the Oktoberfest also has the atmosphere of a music festival, and many singers started to become popular after singing at the Oktoberfest and gaining popularity.

Traditional blues, country and rock music are performed in various places at the Oktoberfest. Whether you love beer, music, or simply want to visit Denver's natural scenery, the Oktoberfest can give you what you want.

Lisko was driving the car on the road and could see that there were a lot more cars on the road recently. These were the breweries that had prepared in advance to come to Denver to decorate their stalls.

Originally, Lisko's Ranch Beer was not eligible to participate, but Lisko was a local native. The organizer who originally rejected him, after a call from a local councilor, cordially welcomed David and the others to enter, and also gave them a

Located at the corner, although this is not the best prime location of the entire Oktoberfest, there is still a lot of traffic.

Although Lisko didn't agree with this behavior, it was unfair to many participating wineries to use the back door, but this time it was him who benefited, so he could only accept it awkwardly.

After thanking the staff for their kindness, David parked his car at his stall. The merchants of all sizes nearby placed beer on their stalls. After all, the Oktoberfest officially opens tomorrow, leaving everyone some time.

It's not quite enough.

Li Ke parked the car and got out of the car. Zhang You looked around at the scenery with great interest. He had never participated in such an event. Although China has a very famous Tsingtao Beer Festival, it was restricted by work and family.

, he has always been rather fascinated and rarely seen.

Lisko took off his sunglasses. The sun in Denver in September was very strong. He rolled up his sleeves and planned to help.

"Sir, we can just come,"

David quickly refused. How could they let their boss work together with their salary? This would make them very ashamed.

Seeing David's serious expression, powerful movements, and unwillingness to let him get started, Lisko could only give up and retract his idea of ​​helping.

Seeing Lisko's movements, the cowboys worked more vigorously. They moved up and down and cleaned the beer brought on the car. These beers were all packed in custom-made plastic frames, each bottle was 500 ml, one piece.

Twelve bottles.

In this way, there are more than 1,100 pieces, which is a lot of work for the five cowboys. Fortunately, they often do physical work on the ranch, so they are still adaptable to this job.

Oktoberfest not only requires beer, but also a lot of snacks. At a glance, Lisko saw that the neatly arranged snack stalls were already set up, including burritos, potato balls, sandwiches, various burgers, and fried chicken nuggets.

The Oktoberfest is not only a huge carnival for many breweries, but also a feast of delicious food from many small stalls.

Lisko thought of the report he had seen last year: a stall specializing in fried chicken had a daily income of 25,000 US dollars.

In order to protect the huge economic benefits brought to itself by this annual grand beer festival, Denver specially set aside a place in the city and built a venue to hold the annual party. It also dispatched the health department to strictly inspect every party.

There are hygiene issues at the stalls, for fear of food poisoning scandals, so all stalls that can be set up here are businesses that have been tested for safety and hygiene by the Denver government.
