standing-up beer 

The style/type of beer often consumed while standing up. These beer types are commonly characterized by:

- Heavy marketing to males
- Lower cost (less expensive)
- Higher volume (often purchased in bulk, i.e. 24-packs)

Standing-up beer can be consumed in a seated environment. "Standing up" is not an absolute requirement.

Standing-up beer is in direct contrast to sitting-down beer.

Common scenarios where standing-up beer is found:

- Outdoor barbecues
- Tailgating
- Bowling alleys
- NASCAR events
- Mowing the lawn
