<div style="text-align: center;">International Brew Day or IBD as it is called amongst those in the know is always celebrated on the first Friday in August. It started in 2008 in Santa Cruz, California and since then has been taken up in 208 cities around the world. Beer aficionado&rsquo;s everywhere will raise a glass to this fun day out.

Use IBD as an excuse to gather the troops and get your friend group together for good banter to go with with your brews.

IBD Traditions 
At Dubai Night, we fully approve of the International Brew Day tradition of buying a brew for a pal, and the tradition dictates that you must say &ldquo;I bring you the gift of brew&rdquo;, when you give them a pint. It makes buying rounds a whole lot more fun.&nbsp; 
 
Be Adventurous 
Many countries brew their own brews, all with a distinctive flavour of their own. Try out some of the different bars from our list to sample brews from around the globe. 
 
Don&rsquo;t Forget to Leave a Tip 
If you think your bartender was great, give them a tip. It also means that you will get served quickly as bartenders always remember who gave them a big tip and give them the VIP treatment. 
 
Remember to Share 
International Brew Day is celebrated globally, in breweries and bars across the world. If you have had a great time in a certain bar, or found your new favourite brew, then share it in <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Dubainightcom/">DubaiNight&rsquo;s Facebook page</a>, and follow us for more tips on fabulous nights out in Dubai.
