International Beer Day was founded in 2007 in Santa Cruz, California and since then has become an international day celebrated in many cities around the world to gather friends and enjoy the beer, celebrate with the brewers and unite the world under the flag of the beer at a united nations celebration. People celebrate beer day by buying beer and for their friends and for themselves.
International Beer Day began as a celebration at the local bar of the festival's founders, and was expanded to a worldwide event.

In honor of International Beer Day, here are some nice and interesting facts about beer you might not have known:
In 1814, a huge wave of beer swept through London, where 1,470,000!!! Liters of beer flooded Tottenham Court in the city. The flood was caused by an explosion at the Meux and Company Brewery. Two houses and a wall in the Tavistock Arms pub were destroyed in the beer wave, in which one of the young women was caught. Because the brewery operated in a poor area of London, the homes of many families who lived in cellars were flooded with beer and eight people drowned to death. The brewery was closed down and destroyed in 1922. The Dominion Theater is in its place these days.
The light spoils the beer.
