What is a beer garden?

A beer garden is an outdoor area where patrons can enjoy drinking beer in a relaxed and social atmosphere. Typically found at bars, breweries, or restaurants, beer gardens often feature long communal tables, string lights, and shady spots for seating. They are a popular gathering place for friends to meet up, enjoy a few drinks, and socialize. Some beer gardens also offer food options, live music, and games such as cornhole or giant Jenga. Beer gardens originated in Germany and have become popular worldwide, especially during the warmer months.
