Cheers to the timeless allure of beer. 🍻 From the iconic production still image of Ice Cold In Alex (1958) to Hogarth's captivating Beer Street, this beloved beverage has left its mark throughout history. Just like John Mills in Ice Cold In Alex, we raise our glasses to celebrate the artistry and craftsmanship behind brewing. HOGARTH: GIN LANE takes us back to a bygone era where beer played a significant role in society, while Huggins Beer advert reminds us of the enduring popularity of this drink. Dylan Thomas knew how to enjoy life with a pint in hand, as depicted in his Drinking & Smoking portrait. Behind every great a team of dedicated coopers crafting wooden barrels with precision and care. Whether it's enjoying a cold one by Athlone and River Shannon or Dundalk in County Louth, Republic of Ireland, beer brings people together across borders and cultures. Even Formula One drivers celebrated their victories at United States Grand Prix East with an ice-cold brew on that memorable day in 1977. And let's not forget Dublin's Brazen Head pub – established way back in 1198 AD – standing as a testament to the lasting legacy culture. So next time you savor your favorite brew, take a moment to appreciate its rich history and the joy it brings.
