beer gardens
Alfresco drinking venues
Beer gardens are outdoor areas, typically attached to a pub, bar, or brewery, where patrons drink beer and socialize.
The tradition originated in German-speaking countries, where breweries planted trees to shade their cellars and eventually served customers there.
Modern beer gardens range from simple patios with picnic tables to elaborate spaces: The brewery's beer garden fills up on summer evenings.
