 * I created this article in January 2024, after stumbling on the deletion discussion for a pop-punk band called "Shower Beers", and saw that we had no article on the actual subject. I can see there have been some long ago attempts to create an article on this topic as far back as 2010, but I doubt they were attempts to create a serious article full of citations.--Milowent • hasspoken  15:37, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Under Shower Beer, now a redirect, was this history:
 * Although usenet posts are not a reliable source, I wanted to add a link here to a December 1998 Usenet post, which used the phrase "shower beer", but not exactly in the way it is today: "One thing to be said for (Schell's Beer)- it was the world's best "shower beer", next to Stroh's. "Shower beer" is a beer you can drink warm the next morning while washing the stench from the previous night's drunken stupor off your sorry ass body."  This post is interesting because it suggests that even by 1998, a cold "shower beer" was not a widely-spread concept, even though it anecdotally may have been happening in places already.--Milowent • hasspoken  17:12, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
