禁酒令时期：美国全国禁酒

许多国家都经历过禁酒令的年代，美国也不例外。禁酒令在美国持续了十多年，最后终于在一波又一波的抗议声中瓦解。但这段独特的历史也给我们留下了独特的酒吧——speakeasy bar，也就是禁酒令时代的地下酒吧。

speakeasy bar: 禁酒令酒吧

The Prohibition in the States started around 1920 and ended in the early 30s after the Great Depression hit: 禁酒令在美国始于1920年，在经济大萧条来袭后于30年代早期结束

Anyway, we had that law for about a decade or so: 这项法律持续了十多年

At that time, people still drank; they just had these secret bars: 但在此期间人们照样喝酒，只不过要去地下黑酒吧喝

There were still people delivering booze to the White House: 当时甚至还有人给白宫送酒

Canada also had prohibition at the time, but it was allowed to make alcohol for export even though they weren’t able to drink it legally: 加拿大当时也禁酒，但酿酒出口并不违法，只不过不准自己喝罢了

They would export it to America where it was sold illegally: 酿酒出口到美国，然后再进行非法销售

Mobsters made a ton of money out of this: 黑帮靠非法卖酒发了大财

Al Capone: 臭名昭著的美国黑帮头目

Speakeasy Bars在魔都

Speakeasy bars在上海也有很多，装修都很精致很复古，但Spencer说有一些其实已经过气了。

Many of the hottest bars in Shanghai are speakeasy-style bars: 现在上海最红的就是禁酒令风格酒吧

禁酒令时期之后的酒文化

Along with the whole microbrewery craze over the past 10 or 15 years has been this revival of these old-style cocktails: 过去10到15年小啤酒厂的精酿啤酒一路走红，而复古的鸡尾酒也开始流行

After the Prohibition, all the way until the 70s, 80s, or even the 90s, people were drinking Budweiser, shit beer and free-pour style cocktails: 禁酒令时代过后，一直到70、80、甚至90年代，啤酒质量低下，人们都喝百威，鸡尾酒也都是随便调调的

Instead of measuring the alcohol out with little jiggers, you just pour with your hands: 酒都不用小量杯量，都直接随手倒

The drinking culture back then was not very refined: 那是段酒文化粗野的日子

It didn’t matter how well it tasted, as long as it got you drunk: 人们不在乎酒的口味，只求喝醉

All of that goes hand in hand with the foodie culture: 酒文化的复兴和吃货文化的崛起紧密相连

The microbeers, the craft cocktails and good food…Who can blame them really?: 精酿啤酒、“功夫”鸡尾酒、美食……这些谁不爱呢

If anything’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right: 既然做一件事就应该把它做好
