Beer Song Countdown: Number 5

Admit it, you thought I forgot about my Top 10 Beer Songs countdown didn't you? Well, you're correct, I actually did. My wife remembered and asked me what I ever named #1 and I said, and I quote, "Um, what are you talking about?" But fortunately I just clicked on the handy hashtag that says "Beer Song Countdown" and presto... back in the game.

What has gone before:

10. "Beer" by Psychostick

9. "Beer Pressure" by Drankmore

8. "Hell Yeah, I Like Beer" by Kevin Fowler

7. "Beer Time" by Justin Moore

6. "Drink A Beer" by Luke Bryan

So that brings us to #5, about 7 months later! It's by a dude I'd really like to drink a beer with, Eric Church. Another country song, it's about a man who seems to be more upset that the woman who left him took a beer with her, instead of being upset that she left. Crack one open and play it.

Eric Church - Cold One

"That was a cold one
I never will get back
Yeah she had to leave, did she have to leave me one beer
Short of a twelve pack?"

Beer Song Countdown: Number 6

Wow, it's been awhile since I visited my countdown of favorite beer songs. Hey, I've been busy! I'll get back to it. Let's see where we are so far...

8. "Hell Yeah, I Like Beer" by Kevin Fowler
7. "Beer Time" by Justin Moore

OK, so number six is more sentimental than it is a party time song, but I really dig it. I have friends that I remember the best times as us sitting down have a few cold ones with some deep conversation, or at least it was deep to us at the time. In fact, my step dad passed away a few years ago actually and I do remember many a conversation with him over a few of his favorites... usually Busch Light. They tasted great in hindsight.

Number six... Luke Bryan's "Drink A Beer."

"So I'm gonna sit right here
On the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer."

Beer Song Countdown: Number 7

The countdown rolls on! We're at #7 and it's an Arkansas boy... Poyen, Arkansas' Justin Moore. His song "Beer Time" makes me smile for several reasons, but mainly for this part of the chorus:

Boys it's beer time,
this ol' town's dry
headed to the county line
for something cold.

Now THAT brings back memories. Great memories. When I first started drinking beer, nearly 100 years ago now (really), I was in a small dry town and as soon as that whistle went off at work it was often a mad dash to the county line (or Missouri state line in my case) where I'd see plenty of buddies and stock up on cold beer. Boys it's beer time!

Beer Song Countdown: Number 8

We're to #8 on the Top 10 Beer Song Countdown and it's a no-brainer. Here's the chorus:

Hell yeah I like beer
It gets me grinning from ear to ear
Not just every now and then
But I'm talking 365 days a year
I can do it around the clock
I don't like it just a little
I like it a lot
Even Hot
Hell yeah I like beer

This should be an anthem for beer lovers and how it wasn't the #1 song on every chart I'll never know. Amarillo, Texas' Kevin Fowler and his song "Hell Yeah I Like Beer" keeps our countdown moving.

Hell yeah, I like beer / It gets me grinnin’ from ear to ear / Not just every now and then / I’m talking 365 days a year / I can do it around the clock / I don’t like it just a little, I like it a lot / Even hot, hell yeah, I like beer,”

Beer Song Countdown: Number 9

We're counting down my top 10 beer songs and at number 9 is one that not only has the wonderfully truthful line "I'm only gonna have one, but then I start to have fun." but the lyric video also show some beers from Oklahoma craft brewery Mustang, which is cool.

So my number 9 video is from Oklahoma/Texas boys Jarrod Denton & Marshal Dutton, known as Drankmore, and it's their ultra-catchy track "Beer Pressure":

Beer Song Countdown: Number 10

I was sitting around thinking of some really serious beer themed posts and it hit me. Beer has just gotten too serious. I enjoy beer... drinking it, talking about it and seeking it out. But all these ratings and snobbery and elitism and know-it-all-isms are really starting to get my nerves. Beer is fun. I like beer. I'm often guilty of forgetting that while sipping on a PBR.

So for the next few weeks I'm going to countdown my 10 favorite beer songs. You may count along, or try to figure out why your latest $20 bottle has an off flavor slightly with the 6 types of hops in the profile. Whichever.

My first pick is a no-brainer really. The humorcore metal band from Tempe, AZ screams the lyrics "Beer is good. Beer is good. Beer is good. And Stuff." Sheer brilliance. Sing along kids!
