They meant a Feierabendbierchen, which is strictly required for construction workers by some DIN standard, I’m sure

Ah yes the the party end of day cute beer (I think?)

Nah it’s just a (small) drink (Bierchen) you’re having with coworkers at the end of the working day (Feierabend). Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a party.
