⚓ Ahoy, Brews & Ballads: “National Beer Day” Drops Anchor in Style
Every year on April 7, beer lovers across the U.S. raise a glass to National Beer Day — but this year, you’ll want to raise your voice too.
J Long, known for his genre-bending mix of country, folk, and humor, delivers an unforgettable sea shanty with National Beer Day — an energetic, pub-ready anthem that turns every barstool into a barrel and every drinker into a deckhand.
🎶 The Vibe: Sing-Along, Slosh-Along Fun
Inspired by the age-old sea shanty tradition, this track is built for group singing, clinking mugs, and good-hearted mischief. Whether you're docked at your favorite bar or backyard BBQ, J Long’s salty verses and rolling rhythms create a perfect storm of fun, folklore, and foam.
With rich instrumentation, hearty gang vocals, and timeless lyrics about ale, mateship, and celebration, this is the kind of song that feels like a tavern full of friends, even if you’re listening alone.
🍻 Why April 7 Matters
National Beer Day commemorates the end of Prohibition in the U.S. on April 7, 1933 — when Americans could legally purchase beer again. In J Long’s world, that calls for a full-on pirate-style party.
“From the lagers to the ales, the stouts and IPAs,
Each sip tells a tale of all our seafaring ways…”
This isn’t just a drinking song — it’s a tribute to tradition, craftsmanship, and community. And in true J Long fashion, it wraps those themes in laughter, joy, and a little nautical flair.

🎼 Lyrics: “National Beer Day” by J Long
Heave ho, me hearties, gather 'round and hear
Raise your pints and join the call, for National Beer Day's here
From the docks to every pub, our spirits sail so high
We'll sing a shanty, raise our ale, beneath the open sky
Oh, it's National Beer Day, heave and haul, me boys
To the brews that bring us joy
Raise your mugs and toast the crew
Here's to mates and frothy brew
Oh, it's National Beer Day, let's shout and make some noise
From the lagers to the ales, the stouts and IPAs
Each sip tells a tale of all our seafaring ways
With hops and barley, malts and yeast, a drink for every taste
We drink to joy and brotherhood, let no drop go to waste
Oh, it's National Beer Day, heave and haul, me boys
To the brews that bring us joy
Raise your mugs and toast the crew
Here's to mates and frothy brew
Oh, it's National Beer Day, let's shout and make some noise
From the lagers to the ales, the stouts and IPAs
Each sip tells a tale of all our seafaring ways
With hops and barley, malts and yeast, a drink for every taste
We drink to joy and brotherhood, let no drop go to waste
Oh, it's National Beer Day, heave and haul, me boys
To the brews that bring us joy
Raise your mugs and toast the crew
Here's to mates and frothy brew
Oh, it's National Beer Day, let's shout and make some noise
So clink your mugs and sing aloud, let's fill the night with song
With every sip, we take a trip, where sailors all belong
To the brewers far and wide, we raise a hearty cheer
For without their craft and their hard graft, we'd have no beer to share
Oh, it's National Beer Day, heave and haul, me boys
To the brews that bring us joy
Raise your mugs and toast the crew
Here's to mates and frothy brew
Oh, it's National Beer Day, let's shout and make some noise
So let the music play, and let the glasses clink
On National Beer Day, we'll drink and laugh and wink
From sunrise 'til the stars appear, let's celebrate with cheer
Oh, it's National Beer Day, the best day of the year
So let the music play, and let the glasses clink
On National Beer Day, we'll drink and laugh and wink
From sunrise 'til the stars appear, let's celebrate with cheer
Oh, it's National Beer Day, the best day of the year
