• Ngakho-ke uma, njengami, ufuna ukwazi nge-zero-beer, ngihlanganise uhlu lwezinketho zakho.
• Kimi, kumcimbi okhethekile? Kuhle ukukhetha.

Iqiniso elijabulisayo: Abanye babo basenotshwala kubo.

Ngobusuku obufudumele muva nje, mina nesoka lami besihleli kupatio yokudlela, futhi wa-oda ubhiya. “Jerk,” ngikhonona.

Wangibuka, wamangala. Kwesinye isikhathi ngihlala ngikhala ngokuncokola ngekhono lakhe (noma, kunalokho, ukungakwazi kwami) ukuphuza utshwala obunzima, kepha angilokothi ngiphuze ubhiya. Ubhiya wawungakaze ubaluleke kangako kimi. Ngangibuphuza, kunjalo - {textend} yindlela osebenza ngayo utshwala - {textend} kepha ingenze ngazizwa ngigcwele ukushesha kunalokho okungenze ngadakwa, ngakho-ke bekungasebenzeli kahle izinhloso zami.

Yingakho ngangimangele nje naye njengoba kwakuphuma emlonyeni wami.

Imvamisa, uvele ahleke uma ngimnika ubufushane ngotshwala angabuphuza engingakwazi; uyakuqonda ukuthi kuvelaphi, nokuthi angihlanyi ngempela. Ngalobu busuku, nokho, ngoba bekuqondene nobhiya, wangibuka ekhathazekile.

"Ulungile?"

Bekade ngi. Kepha ngokusobala, kwenye indawo engqondweni yami, ngahlobanisa ubusuku obufudumele basehlobo nokunambitheka kukabhiya.

Uma nje ngisangulukile, ngitshelwe ukuthi ubhiya ongewona utshwala umqondo omubi.

“Eduzane nobhiya” - {textend} ibinzana elenza ngikhonkwane-ebhodini ngenxa yezizathu engingaziqondi ngokuphelele - ngitshelwe ukuthi i- {textend} ibangela abantu ukuthi balulame.

Impikiswano ukuthi ukuphuza okuthile ngokubukeka nokunambitheka kwe- uqobo ubhiya uzokwenza umuntu afune izinto zangempela.

Lokho kungaba iqiniso impela. Uma usululama futhi ubhiya ubuyi-jam yakho, ungahle uthande ukucabanga ngokucophelela ngokuvula ubhiya ongewona utshwala.

Ukuthanda ubhiya wangempela akuyona into engigcine ngihlala isikhathi eside, noma kunjalo. Kuyiqiniso lokuthi iningi likabhiya ongewona utshwala empeleni alinabo utshwala.

E-United States, noma yini engaphansi kwamaphesenti angu-0.5 yotshwala ngevolumu (i-ABV) ingabizwa ngokuthi “engeyena utshwala.” Futhi ukwenza okulungile, uzoba nesikhathi esinzima sokuthola ngisho nokubhuza okuncane kubhiya oyi-0.4% ye-ABV. (Iningi lobhiya ojwayelekile linokuqukethwe kotshwala okungamaphesenti ama-5 ABV.)

Kepha njengomuntu owayengumlutha wotshwala obunzima kangangokuba ngezinye izikhathi ngangiphuza isiraphu yokukhwehlela noma i-mouthwash ukuze nje izandla zami ziyeke ukuqhaqhazela, angizijikijeli ngotshwala obuncane.

Ngineminyaka engama-11 ngingenangqondo. Kuze kwaba ngonyaka odlule lapho bengizimisele ukuzama i-kombucha, nayo enomkhondo wotshwala obuningi. (Noma kunjalo, ngizamile kuphela ngomzamo wokuthola amabhaktheriya amahle esiswini sami se-wonky.)

Angicabangi ukuthi kubi ngokwemvelo ukubuyisa imilutha yotshwala ukuphuza ubhiya ongewona utshwala.

Akukaze kube yinto engikhululeke ukuzenzela yona ... ngiyacela ngiyacela ... kuze kube manje!

Lokho kungenxa yokuthi, ekugcineni, sengingadla: Izinhlobo ezifana noHeineken noBudweiser seziqalile ukukhiqiza ubhiya ongenalo utshwala. Hhayi ubhiya "onotshwala obuncane", kepha ngokweqiniso amaphesenti ayi-100 kabhiya ongenalo utshwala.

Ngokwazi kwami ​​ukuthi siphila emphakathini othanda utshwala futhi akukho lutho olungalungile ngokungaphuzi, kuyafana nokuzwela njengomuntu ongaziwa, uphethe ingilazi yakho yamanzi ompompi eqenjini labaphuzi.

Ngiyazi ukuthi ngidinga ukuba nizithibe, futhi ngiyaziqhenya ngokuqapha kwami. Kepha akekho noyedwa othanda ukuzizwa njengoyinqaba eqenjini.

Futhi, lapho amanzi ompompi neDiet Coke kungukuphela kophuzo olungelona uphuzo oludakayo emcimbini (okungukuthi, ngethembe, ngokujwayelekile icala), kuhle nje ukuba nenketho eyodwa ngaphezulu.

Ngakho-ke uma, njengami, ufuna ukwazi nge-zero-beer, ngihlanganise uhlu lwezinketho zakho.

Kunezinkampani ezenza ubhiya ezingama-0.05% we-ABV; lelo inani eliphansi lotshwala, ngiyabafaka ohlwini. Kuzofanele uphuze ngokweqile i-100 yazo ukuze uthole okuqukethwe kotshwala obukubhiya owodwa ojwayelekile. Kodwa-ke, ngibamaka nge-asterisk, ngakho-ke uma ufuna ukuhlala u-100% ungenalo utshwala, ungakwazi.
