Lisko’s American Life

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 has made preparations according to yesterday's arrangement, and is ready to set off at any time.

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

At this time, Liske realized it later. He arranged it very early and planned to bring the dark beer produced by the ranch to this Oktoberfest. He hoped that after being accepted by everyone, the beer regularly produced by the ranch would have a clear It's sold out.

David took the notebook 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 was not enough for the consumption of the Oktoberfest. You must know that the Oktoberfest is usually held for three days, and the number of tourists and locals is as high as 100,000.

This reserve may be exhausted in one day, and Lisko did not consider it clearly. The pasture planted rye in the first year. Everyone is not very clear about the prospects of this plant, so they deliberately control the quantity, and the brewed beer is only 30,000. Many bottles, the consumption of the cowboys during this period, plus Les and the rooster purchased part of it for their own drinking, and several parties held, they directly 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 come here. When our reputation is established, we will increase production later."

Lisko rubbed his temples with some headaches, and there were still many things he couldn't think of.

"Okay, sir, let's go first."

David nodded and waved to the loaded semi-trailer behind him. The car started 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 major beer festivals in the world, so Zhang You waited at home very early. Lisco's pickup is gone.

Lisko didn't waste any time either, he turned on the engine directly and kept up with the convoy in front.

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

The United States not only produced light beers that could rival their German counterparts, but also created a new variety—American stout. Since then, "bubbling" in beer halls has become one of the main leisure methods for Americans, and beer halls have also become an important place for socializing and gathering. At that time, some large beer halls also served as hotels. Franklin, who once lived in Philadelphia, has a famous saying: "Without good wine, you can't live a good life." Although Philadelphia's beer tradition originated from Germany, Americans are open-minded in choosing beer, not only brewing and drinking, We 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 a city in the United States exceeds that of Brussels, the capital of Belgium. This also shows from another aspect that Americans do not drink beer 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 drives the local economic benefits of Denver.

Moreover, the Oktoberfest also has the spirit of a music festival, and there are many singers who started to become popular after singing at the Oktoberfest and receiving popularity.

Traditional Blues, country and rock music are staged in various places of the Oktoberfest. Whether you like beer, music, or simply want to visit Denver's natural scenery, the Oktoberfest can make you want.

Lisko was driving a car on the road, and he could see that there were a lot more cars on the road recently. These are the preparations made by various beer manufacturers in advance, and they will come to Denver to decorate their booths.

Originally, Lisko’s ranch beer was not eligible to participate, but Lisko was born and bred in the local area, and the organizer who originally rejected him, received a call from a local councilor, and kindly welcomed David and the others to enter the venue, and also gave a At the corner, although this is not the best golden location of the entire Oktoberfest, there is still a lot of traffic.

Although Lisko doesn't agree with this kind of behavior, it is unfair to many participating wineries to go through the back door, but this time he benefits himself, so he can only accept it awkwardly.

After thanking the staff for their kindness, David parked the car at his booth, and nearby businesses, large and small, placed beer on their booths. After all, the Oktoberfest will officially open tomorrow, so we have time for everyone Not very adequate.

Li Ke parked the car and got out of the car. Zhang You looked around the scenery with great interest. He has never participated in this kind of event. Although China has a very famous Tsingtao Beer Festival, it is restricted by work and family. , he has always been more fascinated, never seen.

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

"Sir, we'll just come,"

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

Seeing David's serious expression and powerful movements, Lisko had no choice but to give up and withdraw his idea of ​​helping.

Seeing Lisko's actions, the cowboys worked harder. They moved up and down, and cleaned up the beer brought in the car. Twelve bottles.

In this way, there are more than 1,100 pieces. For the five cowboys, it is not a small workload, but fortunately, they often do manual labor on the ranch, so they are still suitable for this job.

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

The Oktoberfest is not only a huge carnival for many beer manufacturers, but also a feast of food for many small stalls.

Lisko recalled the report he saw last year. A stall specializing in selling fried chicken had a daily income of 25,000 US dollars.

In order to protect the huge economic benefits brought by this annual grand beer festival, Denver deliberately set aside a place in the urban area, built a venue for holding annual parties, and dispatched the health department to strictly inspect each The sanitation of the stalls is a fear of any food poisoning scandal, so all the stalls that can be set up here are businesses that have been tested by the Denver government for safety and sanitation.
