Who knew? Beer & Hymns... it's good for you!

Research has shown that communal singing offers a wealth of social, emotional, and physical health benefits. According to singupfoundation.org when people sing, endorphins and oxytocin are released by the brain which in turn lowers stress and anxiety levels.

So, can't carry a tune? don't like beer? Come and join the sing-a-long... and live longer! 🥰

Beer & Hymns is coming Back!

WHEN? Tuesday, February 15th - 7-8:00 PM
WHERE? 5 Lakes Brew Pub (Tanger Outlet – Byron Center)

Beer and Hymns is a casual gathering of people who like the idea of singing old-school church hymns while enjoying a pint with friends. No preaching or offering, just a good old-fashioned sing-a-long. Whether you sing from the hymnal every Sunday or just want to tap into the nostalgia of your childhood, all are welcome!

And, of course, it’s not all about beer; it's about friends and community coming together. So, if alcohol isn't for you, please feel free to order water or soda instead. Come early and enjoy an appetizer or meal from the 5 Lakes full menu. This is a family-friendly event. So, bring the kids, bring a friend, sing loudly, drink slowly, and make friends.

Friends and followers of Beer and Hymns South. We wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and blessed New Year.

friends, remember when we used to gather and raise our voices with a pint? well, we’re missing you, and missing sharing that space.

meanwhile, i have over 100 gray psalter hymnals in my basement and especially this week am feeling that these need to be in others’ hands.

we still have about 100 red “worshipping church” hymnals at the tavern where we gathered, however, we came to acquire an additional 200 gray psalters when a church closed and we thought there would be multiplication of the group because we were maxing capacity there.

do you want one for caroling? or ten for sharing with neighbors in order to do the same? or 25? they are in boxes of 18, and i would love to share the wealth. comment below or send a message and we’ll share an address and set out a box for you.

Sorry friends, no Beer & Hymns again this month! But we’ve got some good news for you! We’ve put together a virtual Beer & Hymns on CrossWind’s YouTube Channel.

So, all you have to do is gather up everybody in your house, grab your favorite beverage, get comfy, crank up the volume, and sing along!

Don't forget to share this post with your family and friends.
Set a time, and invite them to ‘social distance’ with you for some virtual Beer & Hymns.

And until we can meet together again at 5 Lakes Brewing Co. Stay home... Stay safe... and keep healthy!

Things are certainly changing quickly these days. After prayerfully considering the growing number of coronavirus cases within the state, and the health and well-being of the patrons and staff of 5 lakes as well as our community, Beer and Hymns South is cancelling the St. Patrick’s Day Beer & Hymns scheduled for Tuesday, March 17th.

“In the end, it will be impossible to know if we overreacted or did too much. But it will be quite apparent if we under reacted or did too little.”

We look forward to seeing you at the next Beer & Hymns, April 21, 2020.
