June 15th is Beer Day Britain, the UK’s annual national beer day, and a chance to celebrate Britain’s national drink – ideally in the pub.
Hundreds of thousands of beer drinkers will be celebrating Beer Day Britain as they do each year. The focus of the day is the National Cheers To Beer (#cheerstobeer) toast at 7pm. This simple activity is not only marked across the UK but by beer drinkers around the world who participate each year on June 15th, with so many people joining in that #cheerstobeer trends on social media.
Jane Peyton, beer sommelier and instigator of Beer Day Britain said ‘After two years of being unable to commemorate Beer Day Britain in the way we normally do because of the pandemic, we can once again meet in person to celebrate national beer day. Beer tastes so much better when consumed with friends, and even better in a pub with a great atmosphere!’

Notes to Editors
About Beer Day BritainBeer Day Britain is an annual celebration on June 15th for all beer lovers and it celebrates beer from mainstream lager to limited edition craft beer and everything in between no matter where it is brewed.
June 15th is significant because that is also the date Magna Carta was sealed in 1215. The great charter mentions ale in Article 35.
‘Let there be throughout our kingdom a single measure for wine and a single measure for ale and a single measure for corn…..’
Ale was so important in England in 1215 that it was cited in one of the most significant legal documents in history. Today beer and pubs are still central to British life and seven out of 10 drinks sold in a pub are beer.
