酿造啤酒
niàng zào pí jiǔ
ZH
brew beer; the process of making beer through fermentation
他家在地下室酿造啤酒已经有十年了。
His family has been brewing beer in the basement for ten years.
Etymology
The phrase combines 酿造 (meaning "to ferment and produce alcoholic drinks", originating from ancient Chinese brewing techniques recorded as early as the Shang Dynasty) and 啤酒 (the Chinese translation of the loanword "beer" introduced in the 19th century).
Memory Aid
Break the phrase into parts: 酿 and 造 both mean "make by processing", while 啤 is the phonetic start of "beer" — 酿造 + 啤酒 directly means processing to make beer.
