There is no unified acceptable definition of a bar crawl, but one idea is at the center of all its definitions as offered by different bar crawl enthusiasts.
A bar crawl (A.K.A pub crawl) is very popular in Europe and America. This drinking tour is most noted amongst young adults who engage in heavy alcohol consumption, merriment, and gait. But it is a lot more than that and the negative notion is far from what it really is. So let’s take you through its origin.
The term "pub crawl can be traced to England, in a small local twin named Annapolis, where small pubs and taverns which are within a trek-able distance from one another are visited by a group of partying male folks.
Traditionally, this started as a means of social gatherings for local expatriate communities and tourists. The idea was centered on meeting new and exciting friends and an introduction to new pubs in cities where they may not be too familiar with. There are many motivations behind bar crawl enthusiasts taking part in the event; and here we have outlined some reasons here.
