"Me & a Beer" is a song by American country music singer Chris Janson. It was released on April 25, 2025 as the lead single from his sixth studio album Wild Horses (2025). He wrote the song with Andy Sheridan, Ashley Gorley and Taylor Phillips and produced it with Sheridan.

Background

When Chris Janson wrote the song, he aimed to borrow elements from his songs "Fix a Drink" and "Good Vibes". He described it as an anthem for blue-collar workers and the working class, whom he considered the "real people in America."

In an interview on Taste of Country Nights, Janson stated that "Me & a Beer" was one of the hardest songs for him to write, as he began drinking infrequently after marrying and having children.
