Valentines Day
Chocolates, a candlelit dinner for two, roses. Perhaps an “I Wuv You” teddy bear. All are cliches that we have come to associate with what has become a big business Hallmark holiday.
Valentine’s Day or Saint Valentine’s Day was originally known as the Feast of Saint Valentine. Taking place annually on February 14, it was a day to honour early Christian martyrs known as Saint Valentine (surprisingly, there are a few). It wasn’t until the 14th and 15th centuries that the day became associated with love, it is suggested that this comes from the association with lovebirds in spring. By the 18th century, Valentine’s Day had become an occasion whereby lovers expressed their love for each other with flowers, confectionery and greetings cards.
Whether you choose to go all out with an over the top declaration of love or prefer to take the slightly subtler route, here at Beers of Europe we have a wonderful selection of beers that will make the perfect gift for that special person. Even if that special person is you, so why not treat yourself? You’re worth it.
