What beer will you drink on International Beer Day?

Aug 5, 2012 1:09 AM

This Sunday (08/05/2012), the world will celebrate beer. It’s officially International Beer Day, “a worldwide celebration of beer on Aug. 5, taking place in pubs, clubs, bars, breweries, beer gardens and back yards all over the world.”

There are officially 334 celebrations planned across 193 cities in 46 countries.

I think I'll head over to Port Aransas, TX for a stop at the Port A Brewing Company. Have one of their craft frosty cold beers or two and their "best in Texas" Stopher Burger.

Any beer that can't outrun me :)

Seriously, my current favorite beer is Green Flash Double Stout Black Ale. Very yummy and pairs well with chocolate cake... two great tastes that taste great together.

What do you have that's cold? Seriously, though, it doesn't have to be cold.

Right now I am working on a 6 pack of Goose Island 312 Urban Wheat Ale. I think I will likely celebrate with that tomorrow. Although I am going out to lunch at a new restaurant so I may have some new options to try there.

@ohcheri that sounds delicious! I will have to check it out.

I'm gonna go completely international. Sam Adams from America, Guinness from Ireland, Beck's from Germany, and Corona from Mexico. I'll also drink any free beers you have and are willing to share. Also, you can't forget PBR. It's like George Washington going down your throat.

@ohcheri and @mkdr: At risk of sounding like an AOL'er from the 1990's, I am going to say, "ME TOO!"

@captainsuperdawg: Well, now I feel like it is my patriotic duty to get me some PBR.

Thanks for the excuse. I think I will have a gaggle of my favorites compete. The winner will be chosen when I have a vowel movement.

Probably a nice Chocolate Stout or a German Wheat Beer. Haven't decided yet

I didn't know it was a holiday but it sounds like as good excuse as any to drink some Guinness.

I have a 22oz bottle of cherry wheat that I brewed last summer. It's been sitting in my fridge since it conditioned and should still be quite good (it was extremely good last summer, probably my best brew ever).

I'll probably also have some Raspberry Shock Top and Sam Adams Blackberry Witbier, as I happen to have a few bottles of each left over from vacation last week.

It is a shame it is so humid right now, as I need to get my next beers (a dark porter and a Belgian triple) brewed or else they won't be ready when I need them (in October and December, respectively).

None as I don't like beer. I'll buy my brother some Heineken though, he'll appreciate that!

I have some Lindeman's Framboise in the fridge, so I'll go with that.

Steel Reserve and Old English!
Because malt liquor is beer too :D

I live in the land of hipsters though - where we have more microbrews than people - so I probably should support one of the locals.. they do make great beer though. As ashamed as I am to admit it, I haven't been drinking much beer lately, so it'll do me some good :), thanks for the excuse to drink

I also have a beer kit I bought from Midwest awhile back I need to make too.. hope the hops and stuff are still good..

I'm waiting for Hard Cider Day. Hot Mulled Cider Day is September 30 so I'm thinking Oct 1st. And for beer, anything Dogfish Head.

I will probably have a pint of honey ale that I brewed earlier this year, as well a couple of pints of graff cider I made.

Gulden Draak -- if I can find it. Awesome with meat and truffle enhanced foods.

Epic Brewing "825 S State". It's a stout from their elevated series. Delicious. And I will drive to 825 S State (the location of the brewery) to get one :)

I believe I will have some Wasatch Polygamy Porter.

Actually, I have no idea where to purchase it (and prefer wine to beer in any case), but the name and the label both make me laugh.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
