Fete du Bili-Bili

Bili-bili is the millet beer that fuels every celebration, every funeral, every gathering of more than three people in Chad. It is served in calabashes, it is drunk communally, and it is brewed by women who know the exact fermentation time by taste alone. The first sip is sharp. The second is smooth. The third is when the stories begin.
