Chapter 1469 Beer
One winter a few years ago, Old Patton tried to brew beer with barley produced in the Snow Mountain Ranch. He accidentally found that the beer had a high degree of taste, good taste, and particularly mellow taste. Especially when brewing with melted water on the Snow Mountain, it would produce a special taste.
So since then, the road to brewing beer in Snow Mountain Ranch has begun. Now the products are sold all over the world and have quickly become one of the top beer brands. The price is not acceptable to ordinary people. Because of the small number, sometimes even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it smoothly.
Before this, there was a small winery in the ranch that was specially used to produce wine. At that time, the Cabernet Sauvignon planting area was not large, and the small winery was close to the cowboys' residence. Later, the orchard expanded the wine grape planting area. The original equipment was not enough, so a winemaking factory was rebuilt.
In addition to wine, workers occasionally use fruits with poor appearance and taste to make some fruit wine for the ranch employees to drink on their own.
The monkey wine that people often call is actually a monkey collects various fruits and puts them together, and after unexpected fermentation, it turns into wine, which is not as magical as the legend.
The fruit wine has been artificially fermented and distilled, and the degree is not low. In winter, ranch employees like to drink some to warm up their bodies. Anyway, there is nothing to do. If you get drunk, you will fall asleep.
The beer factory is located next to the red wine brewery. There are several wooden houses with large area, close to each other, about three floors high, and the cost is no lower than that of a factory made of steel and cement. It is more beautiful.
The outside and inside of the wood are painted with several layers of brown and red mothproof paint. The new building is particularly beautiful, with large green grass surrounding it. There is also a "flour processing factory" similar to the style of the Anya house in the past.
Above the cylindrical exterior wall is a red conical spire. The white kite used as decoration rotates. There are a total of four blades, each blade reaching about five meters in length. Today, the wind is not fast, and they are slowly turning.
Since the barley produced last year was used up, the beer factory has been shut down since February of the Chinese New Year to the recent, workers have seized time to produce in recent days. When they approach the factory, they can smell the strong fragrance emitted by the barley hops during the fermentation of fermentation.
A sewage treatment plant not far away is working. Since there are no other substances added when brewing beer, it is not difficult to deal with wastewater, otherwise it will definitely be moved to another place.
The wastewater that has been heavily purified was discharged from the pipe into the stream next to it, with some food residue mixed in it, which happened to become food for fish in the water, making them fat and strong.
After getting off the car, I walked into the factory through the door. There was no air conditioner installed. There were sounds from the super large electric fans everywhere. The windows were all opened. The air flow took away the heat emitted by the boiler. The ground was splashed with water to cool down. It was hard to tell what it tasted.
There are cylinders above and conical stainless steel barrels below are more than 30. When it comes to Germany, you will think of Munich. Munich is the most famous of Munich. The equipment in this factory is purchased from Munich, Germany.
The new automatic assembly line canning technology is at the world's leading level, and the number of workers is not large. Han Xuan only saw a few people busy, and the dark wine bottles were constantly filled. After pressing the lid, the box was packed and packed, and directly sent it to the truck compartment of the SoS Transportation Company waiting outside by a forklift.
We witnessed the legendary hops, which are green and white plant flowers. In the process of brewing beer, it has an irreplaceable unique effect, which can make the beer have aromatic and bitter taste, and also prolong the shelf life and form beer foam to clarify the malt.
To make ale wine, the wort needs to be stored at a constant temperature of 20 degrees Celsius for at least two weeks, so the yield will be limited by the number of fermentation barrels. There are more than 30 fermentation barrels here, each with a capacity of about 8,000 liters.
In other words, for example, the half-liter glass bottled beer that people often drink, Snow Mountain Ranch can only produce more than 400,000 bottles in half a month. In terms of the global market, it is far from meeting people's needs.
These are produced now from a batch of early-ripe barley harvested in late May. They are the first new varieties to be grown in Snow Mountain Ranch, with a shorter growth period than those recently harvested.
Han Xuan and his father walked and chatted. After visiting the factory equipment, they came to a small brewing laboratory, which was filled with wine bottles and was filled with beer smell.
A guy was lying on the sofa and slept soundly. Looking at his red face, he probably had drunk a lot of wine before.
"Vincent, what's wrong with him?"
Dad Han sat on the chair and asked a middle-aged man, saying that he obviously knew them.
The middle-aged man named Vincent replied with a smile: "He felt that the first batch of beers this year was delicious, and he couldn't help but drink more. The degree was higher than he thought. I was drunk last night and my head still hurts until now.
Hello, Han, Miss Dolores, I am Vincent Sutcliffe, just like Pete, and the wine tester here."
He shook hands with Han Xuan and Anya respectively. There are many wine testers who are professions of tasting red wine. There are very few guys who specialize in the beer tasting profession, and there are no more people than giant pandas.
The raw beer brewed from the Snow Mountain Ranch is no less than that of red wine. Judging from the beer left in the cup, the color is very dark. This wine tester named Pitt drank roughly.
"Give me some wine to try. Are there any side dishes to drink and eat?" Mr. Han said casually, patting the chair beside him and letting Anya sit on it. As for her son, she doesn't have to worry about him.
"Yes, I asked the cafeteria to bring some food. This bucket contains new wine this year. Wait, go get a few clean cups, three?"
Han Xuan looked at Anya and found that she seemed a little cautious and drank less. She nodded and told her, "Yes, three, you can sit down and drink with us. Anyway, I'm about to get off work, right?"
"Well, I really love this job so much, and I'm going to go to the racetrack. I'll be fine next time.
I drank too much yesterday, and I could sober up some drinks today. My son was about to go to junior high school, but his grades bothered me. Fortunately, there was nothing that could be solved by one meal of wine. If it didn’t work, then two meals.”
The alcohol content is different. Vincent took a few cups to wash it, called the ranch cafeteria, and asked them to send some fried chicken, fries, onion rings, cornflakes and shrimp, etc. After these suppers, they didn't have to eat them anymore.
Pour the glass for Anya, she picked up the glass and took a small sip to taste it. She didn't like the taste of beer and couldn't help frowning.
At this moment, when he heard Mr. Han say cheers, he found that Han Xuan had finished touching the cup with them, and then raised his head and drank it in one sip. She looked a little confused.
I don’t drink alcohol normally and don’t know how strong I drink, so I quickly finished it with me.
When Han Xuan saw it, she had drunk all her clothes and her expression was stunned.
