National Beer Day Customs & Traditions

All that is really needed to celebrate National Beer Day in the United States is to enjoy one at your local watering holes. Bars, taverns, and pubs all over the U.S. participate in this day and they usually have some sort of party or contest around the event. In Iceland, it is common for those participating in this holiday to go on a pub crawl–visiting the many pubs which remain open until 4 in the morning of the next day. In the U.K, it is also customary to visit pubs on this day as well. It is also customary among some people in the United Kingdom to sing “Cheers to beer,” an anthem written by Jane Peyton and dedicated to beer.

Social media has also gotten into the act. On National Beer Day in the U.S., it is common for the hashtag #NationalBeerDay to trend on Twitter. In the U.K., it is common for the hashtag #CheerBeer to trend on June 15th.

For those people who consider them citizens of the world, and have a high tolerance for what has been called liquid bread, celebrating all three holidays may be in order. The Icelandic one can be celebrated on March 1st, the American one on April 7th and the U.K one on June 15th. Sort of an international National Beer Day crawl.
