October 27th, 2025 is American Beer Day

Today, have a cold one, pour yourself some suds, beer me, and make a toast to American-style pale lager or pilsener. This variety of beer is light and very thirst-quenching. As a result, beer is the most popular alcoholic beverage in the US! It's American Beer Day.
