National Beer Lover’s Day playlist

7 September is National Beer Lover’s Day, a day to celebrate a shared passion for a drink that has been brewed for over 5000 years. Why not enjoy your favourite lager or ale with some beer-related music to get you into the spirit of things.

Our beer-infused song selection takes you from the cheery delights of The Housemartins’ “Happy Hour” to Julian Cope’s salute to the dead “As the Beer Flows Over Me”, from Psychostick’s eloquent praise of the amber liquid to the Oktoberfest staple “Ein Prosit.” Chris Young advises us how to behave in case of drought in “Save Water, Drink Beer”, as well as plenty of other ballads, anthems, and plain old drinking songs to provide the soundtrack to your Beer Lover’s Day celebrations.
