It’s #NationalBeverageDay...

...and what better way to celebrate beverages than with America’s favorite alcohol beverage?

Beer leads as America's alcohol beverage of choice. More than 66% of alcohol-consuming adults have reached for a cold beer in the past 3 months... and it's no wonder: beer is the drink we choose when people come together.

It’s what we enjoy at ballgames, backyard barbecues and countless moments shared with friends and family. With a wide range of tastes and styles, plenty of non-alcohol options and 80% of beers below 5% ABV, there's a beer for every occasion.

Cheers to the 2.42 million workers supported by the beer industry—and cheers to a cold glass of delicious beer!

Reaching for a refreshing Mexican beer today? You’re in good company. 🍺🍋‍🟩 NBWA’s April Beer Purchasers’ Index shows imports outpacing other segments as distributors planned for the holiday. Enjoy responsibly — and don’t forget the lime!

April is Alcohol Awareness Month...

...but the beer industry’s commitment to responsible consumption is reiterated every single day.

When Americans choose to drink in moderation, they overwhelmingly choose beer. It’s easy to understand why: 80% of beer is below 5% ABV, and beer makes up 87% of no- and low-alcohol options.

But our industry doesn’t stop there.

Check out the latest blog from the Beer Institute’s Senior Director of Health Policy, Bill Young, on how the beer industry is putting responsibility into action >> https://t.co/ntsOYmoiAp
