  University of Illinois at Chicago professor Jennifer Wiley recently concluded that the average man produces his most creative thinking with an alcohol level of 0.075%.
  美国伊利诺伊大学(University of Illinois)芝加哥分校教授詹妮弗?威利(Jennifer Wiley)最近研究发现0.075%的酒精含量能使普通男性的创造力到达巅峰。
  Known as the creative peak, it's considered the ideal state for problem solving, inventing and generally coming up with great ideas.
  创造力的顶点状态也就意味着人们能够产生各种奇思妙想,完美地解决问题。
  Marketing 2 agency CP+B Copenhagen worked with Rocket Brewing 3 to engineer a beer that claims to enable the average person to reach the desired 0.075%.
  为了酿造出能让人们到达0.075%理想值的啤酒,丹麦市场营销机构CP+B Copenhagen和啤酒酿造厂Rocket Brewing展开了合作。

  不过,该公司也对可能存在的隐患提出了警告
  'Enjoying the right amount will enhance your creative thinking. Drinking more will probably do exactly the opposite,' the firm says.
  “适度饮酒能增强你的创造思维,但过度饮用可能会适得其反。”
  CP+B Copenhagen managing director Mathias Birkvad told Fastco the idea came about when they came across Wily's research.
  得知威利的相关研究结果后,CP+B Copenhagen主管马蒂亚斯?博克瓦德(Mathias Birkvad)联系了美国快扣公司(Fastco)告知研发新啤酒的想法。
  'We have often experienced that the best creative ideas, that we have come up with, are not necessarily done within the agency walls, but often at after-hours social gatherings 9 at our local pub,' says Birkvad.
  博克瓦德说:“我们有过不少这样的经验,人们最具创造力的时刻并不一定是在办公室,下班后到酒吧参与社交活动往往能让人们想出更多好主意。”
  'As an agency we believe that creative thinking can solve any problem. So why not take the idea a step further and use the beer to do something good?'
  “我们相信创造思维能解决任何问题。所以为什么不进一步利用这个想法,通过啤酒去做一些有意义的事呢?”
