International Beer and Pizza Day, celebrated annually on October 9th, commemorates the delightful combination of beer and pizza, two beloved culinary delights with rich historical backgrounds. The event was established in 2016 by Nick Saulino, a website designer and enthusiast of this iconic pairing. Beer, known as the oldest alcoholic beverage, dates back to 5000 B.C. and played a significant role in ancient Egyptian culture. Similarly, pizza has ancient roots, with the word “pizza” documented in Gaeta, Italy, in 997 A.D. The celebration encourages people to enjoy various ways of commemorating the day, such as savouring beer and pizza together at a local pizzeria, attempting homemade pizza, trying handcrafted beer, or even experimenting with unique pizza flavours. International Beer and Pizza Day serves as a reminder to indulge in life’s simple pleasures and enjoy the delightful combination of beer and pizza. Social media engagement and sharing favourite beer and pizza combinations are also encouraged during the celebration.
