National Beer Lover’s Day is observed annually on September 7th. Not to be confused with National Beer Day which is celebrated every April 7th. Whether its an ale or a lager, Beer is the world’s most widely consumed alcoholic beverage and the third-most popular drink overall, after water and tea. It is thought by some to be the oldest fermented beverage. Its bittersweet taste entices our taste buds and makes us fall in love even more.

A beer lover or enthusiast is called a cerevisaphile.

Beer and the process of brewing beer may predate known history. As varied as the processes, grains, and flavors, beer continues to change and evolve over time.

And, Samuel Adams holds a place in both beer and tea history in this country.
