The shower beer: the idea of cracking a cold one while taking a shower. These six beers either have a shower connotation or are (mostly) low in alcohol. Something sessionable but still tasty is what I think is the key to the perfect shower beer. Crank up that bathroom boogie, or try these six shower-related albums to sing in the shower.
Bert and Ernie and Champion Shower Beer
I literally had to head south to find this beer as it is not distributed in New England. When figuring out what beers to try, I had to find this. Using an Instacart order while in Disney World, I finally got my hands on the Shower Beer. It’s an easy-drinking pilsner, great for a hot day. Pair the ultimate shower beer with the ultimate bathtime-singing duo, Ernie and Bert! Grab the rubber ducky and hit the showers!
TLC and Allagash White
Maybe a shower isn’t quite a waterfall, but in a pinch, it’ll work. I won’t go chasing waterfalls, but I will go grab a beer. Allagash White is classic, is lower in ABV at 5.2%, and also has a drawing of the Allagash River on it, which works for me.
James Taylor and Bell’s Two Hearted
On this Greatest Hits album of James Taylor, he sings “Shower the People,” and even though the Two Hearted ale is not that low ABV, it does have fish on the can and fish are also wet. See the connection?
Bon Jovi and Founders All Day IPA
The classic Bon Jovi’s Slippery When Wet album cover of words written into a wet windshield brings the water. The All Day IPA is full of taste but low in ABV, a perfect shower beer.
My Morning Jacket and Aeronaut’s Hop Hop and Away
With The Waterfall volumes 1 and 2, My Morning Jacket is going overboard into the abyss. Hop Hop and Away is a classic session IPA with a low ABV but is still tasty.
Jason Isbell and Lawson’s Finest Liquids Super Session #3
What better song to listen to in the shower than “Songs That She Sang in the Shower” off of Southeastern? The Super Session series are all delicious and all low ABV, another perfect shower beer.
