Some employers like to encourage people to stick around after work and socialise together to help teams bond and nurture a relaxed culture. If socialising with colleagues and networking in a less formal environment is your thing, we turned to Glassdoor company reviews, contributed anonymously by employees all year round, to find out which UK companies offer free beer as one of their coolest perks.
Here are 15 UK companies whose employees have shared that access to free beer at work is one of the best reasons to work at the company:
