NATIONAL DRINK BEER DAY | SEPTEMBER 28

National Drink Beer Day toasts that malty elixir on September 28th, annually. Just as the Oktoberfest season comes to an end, the day reminds us to enjoy the world's most popular adult beverage.

#DrinkBeerDay

Beer lovers have more selection than ever before in the ale and lager market. An explosion in the craft beer industry keeps the competition and the flavors robust, churning out new flavors seasonally. Beer connoisseurs quench their thirst with flavors drastically different from their grandfather's beers. Rootbeer to raspberry, caramel, and hints of herbs all tickle the palate when it comes to artisanal beers.

When is National Beer Day?

However, you don't have to drink a special brew to celebrate the day. Drink your favorite stand by or branch out - whichever you prefer. Around the country, and from around the world, a wide assortment of beers offers plenty of ways to celebrate. Whether you call your mug full of brew a barley pop or cerveza, the day is worth celebrating.

HOW TO OBSERVE DRINK BEER DAY

The best way to celebrate is by enjoying a glass of beer. As always, celebrations are better when surrounded by others who celebrate with you. So, invite friends, family, coworkers, too. Join them at a local pub or tavern. Or invite them to your home.

Another way to celebrate includes recognizing your servers, bartenders and brewers. Celebrate them with a toast as you take your first frothy sip.

No matter how you #CelebrateEveryDay, drink responsibly and use #DrinkBeerDay when posting on social media.

NATIONAL DRINK BEER DAY HISTORY

While National Day Calendar® continues researching the origin of this delicious beverage holiday, it's interesting to note it lands on the birth of Arthur Guinness, the founder of Guinness Brewery. However, if you're looking for more ways to celebrate, we have you covered.
