Beer, Coastal village in East Devon, England
Beer sits along the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, featuring white chalk cliffs that protect its shingle beach and fishing boats from westerly winds.
The Beer Quarry Caves emerged through centuries of stone extraction, providing material for significant buildings including Westminster Abbey and Exeter Cathedral.
Local fishermen continue maritime traditions by operating their vessels directly from the beach, using electric winches to move boats across the shore.
Visitors reach Beer via the A3052 road connecting Exeter to Lyme Regis, with regular bus services from Axminster railway station 9 miles away.
In 2008, microbes collected from Beer's cliffs survived extreme conditions aboard the International Space Station, contributing to space settlement research.
