双语｜尿液做的啤酒！你敢喝吗？

Beer from urine! But, would you dare to drink it?

新加坡的一家啤酒厂通过将尿液和污水转化为酒精饮料，将环保的概念提升到另一个层次。

啤酒酿造的最新发展是否令人垂涎欲滴，我们不敢说，但这肯定是一种绿色的方式。

If the latest development in beer-making is appetising or not, we cannot say, but it sure is a green way of doing so.

据BBC报道，NEWBrew目前被宣传为最环保的啤酒，是由一种从污水中回收，过滤并泵入新加坡供水系统的液体制成的。

Currently advertised at “the greenest beer”, NEWBrew is made out of a liquid that is recycled from sewage, filtered, and pumped into Singapore's water supply, as per a BBC report.

为什么要用尿液、污水来酿造啤酒？

Why use urine, sewage to make beer?

在一个面临未来几年将变得更糟的水危机的世界里，需要尽一切努力来节约和回收水。啤酒需要大量的水，因为90%的饮料是水。

In a world that is facing a water crisis which is going to get worse in the coming years, every attempt to save and recycle water is needed. Beer requires a lot of water, since 90 per cent of the beverage is water.

为了应对不可避免的水危机，新加坡水务局推出了这种饮料，以提高人们对该国水资源短缺的认识。

To tackle the inevitable water crisis, Singapore’s water agency has launched the drink to raise awareness about the country’s water scarcity.

它是如何制作的？How is it made?

NEWBrew由新生水制成，新生水从污水中回收，过滤并泵入新加坡的供水系统。

新生水经过严格的测试，几轮过滤，使其安全饮用。

NEWBrew is made out of NEWater, which is recycled from sewage, filtered, and pumped into Singapore's water supply. NEWater goes through stringent tests, several rounds of filtration, making it safe to drink.

据《独立报》报道，污水被处理成“超洁净”的水，然后用于酿造95%的热带金发啤酒。

According to Independent, the sewage is treated to become “ultra-clean” water, before it is used to make 95 per cent of the tropical blonde ale.

清洁的新生水不会污染饮料中麦芽，啤酒花和酵母菌株的味道。

The clean NEWater does not contaminate the taste of the malt, hops and strains of yeast in the drink.

多年来，水务局一直在处理污水，将其转化为饮用水。它说，这项运动的目的是缓冲干燥天气的供水。在干旱时期，回收的污水被添加到水库中，然后在那里的水被处理并用作自来水。

The water board has been treating sewage for years to turn it into drinkable water. It says that the aim of the exercise is to cushion water supply against dry weather.During dry periods, the recycled sewage gets added to reservoirs, before the water there is treated and used as tap water.

精酿啤酒自称具有“烘烤的蜂蜜般的回味”，是新加坡在变热干燥时保持水分的另一种方式，同时保持其供水安全。

The craft beer, which describes itself as having a “toasted, honey-like aftertaste”, is another way of keeping Singapore hydrated when it gets hot and dry while keeping its water supply secure.

NewBrew目前被宣传为最环保的啤酒。NewBrew is currently advertised as the greenest beer.

不是游戏中唯一的玩家 Not the only player in the game

NEWBrew并不是第一款用循环水制成的精酿啤酒。其他地方的人也酝酿过类似的方案。

NEWBrew isn’t the first craft beer to be made from recycled water. Similar drafts have been brewed by people elsewhere.

据《海峡时报》报道，在圣地亚哥，精酿啤酒公司Stone Brewing于2017年推出了Stone Full Circle Pale Ale啤酒，这是一种用纯净再生水酿造的啤酒。

According to The Straits Times, In San Diego, craft beer company Stone Brewing rolled out Stone Full Circle Pale Ale in 2017, a beer brewed with purified reclaimed water.

Crust Group推出了一系列手工啤酒，这些啤酒由其餐厅和酒店合作伙伴的剩余面包和其他成分制成，以提高人们对食物浪费的认识。

Crust Group rolled out a line of artisanal beers made from surplus bread and other ingredients from its restaurant and hotel partners, to raise awareness on food waste.

餐厅Super Loco Group还在其Loco地球月菜单中推出了一种“零到英雄”鸡尾酒，该鸡尾酒采用热带水果残渣制成，以纪念4月22日的地球日。

Restaurant Super Loco Group has also introduced a "zero to hero" cocktail, made using tropical fruit scraps, in its Loco Earth Month menu to mark Earth Day on 22 April.
