International Beer Day is set to foam over on Friday, August 2, inviting beer lovers worldwide to unite in celebration of one of humanity’s oldest and most beloved beverages. It’s the perfect excuse to gather with friends, explore new brews, and toast to the rich history and culture surrounding beer.
The story of International Beer Day begins in 2007 in Santa Cruz, California. Jesse Avshalomov and a group of friends, over a few pints, conceived the idea of a day dedicated to celebrating beer globally. What started as a local event has grown into an international celebration that spans continents.
Whether you prefer a classic lager, a hoppy IPA, or something more adventurous, there’s no better day to enjoy a cold one. So, mark your calendars, raise your glasses, and join beer enthusiasts around the world in this annual tribute to our favorite frothy friend. Cheers to International Beer Day!
