Lager or Stout, Citrusy or With A Hint Of Coffee: Beer Recipes Perfect For Every Weekend

If you had to pick one word to describe beer, we think it'd be 'perfect'. Strong or light, on a hot summer day or while watching a match with friends, whatever your taste, or the occasion, there is a beer for it all. You can drink it, wash your hair with it, gift it, and even make delicious cocktails with beer.

It's no surprise then that there are not just songs, but also a day dedicated to the drink.

So on this Beer Day, kick-off the weekend with something fun. Mix your beer with gin or whisky, stir it up citrusy or with coffee - whatever your taste, we've got some easy-to-make cocktails for you, courtesy Simba.
