Major holidays often mean a night out with fun and friends… and maybe your favorite b**r.

The B**r Institute believes that alcohol consumption should be moderate and responsible. That’s why we’re glad to support WRAP’s SoberRide here in the DC area: a great program that provides $15 Lyft credits to help get people home safely.

Last Halloween, a record-breaking 4,056 people made a safe choice, and used SoberRide. That’s 4,056 possible drivers taken off the road in one single night.

We’re so proud of our partnerships that help keep people safe when they choose to consume alcohol.

B**r jobs are a lot bigger than just brewers and importers.

They're the machinists, electricians, plumbers, can makers, bottlers, equipment manufacturers, office staff and delivery drivers. All the people who keep our facilities operating.

More than 2.42 million jobs in total are supported by b**r, in every state and every congressional district. That’s worth celebrating.

Cheers to !

It's , and we're giving a shoutout to the people who keep America's b**r industry brewing.

Brewers, machinists, can makers, bottlers, equipment manufacturers: you name it. In total, the U.S. b**r industry supports more than 77,000 manufacturing jobs, all across the country.

Cheers to the manufacturing workers who keep our b**rs full!

It’s not just any b**r served at Munich’s Oktoberfest!

The b**r they’re drinking at the official festival comes from six traditional Munich breweries: Augustiner, Hacker-Pschorr, Hofbräu, Löwenbräu, Paulaner and Spaten.

But you know what? We're not that picky.

There are b**rs for every flavor profile and every taste.

So whether you love a German festbier, a crisp light l***r, a pale l***r or one of the growing number of low- and no-alcohol options, there's a b**r for you.

And that's really what we think Oktoberfest is all about: celebrating with friends, family, coworkers and neighbors. Prost!
