Drop in at these places for the most refreshing Beer Cocktails on this International Beer Day 

International Beer Day, celebrated annually on the first Friday of August, was created in 2007 by a California man named Jesse Avshalomov and his colleagues as a way to bring friends and strangers together over pints of beer. Since then people across the world celebrate this day. What better way to end the week than by chugging down this alcoholic beverage! But we have come with a more
unique way to celebrate this day and that is through Beer Cocktails. Yes, you heard that right!

If the words ‘beer’ and ‘cocktail’ said simultaneously makes you wince, we urge you to reconsider. Quality beer is a great product for adding length and flavour to a spirit-based drink. Sure, there’s a time and place for sipping on straight-up beer, but sometimes you want more than just a plain old bottle of your favourite beer. For some occasions, you crave for something different, something unique and more refreshing and delicious. Beer is great and all, but a beer cocktail is just better. So, on this International Beer Day which is on 2nd of August, go ahead and replace your favourite brews with these exciting beer cocktails at some of these well – known spots in Kolkata.
