“No science, no beer”

“No science, no beer” is a jocular saying that has been printed on many images. The saying has been used to justify the importance (and funding) of science education.
   
“Worse still. No science no beer fermentation” was posted on Twitter by Southern Smoke ‘N Br on October 16, 2016. “No Science, No Beer. Know Science, Know Beer” was posted on Twitter by c0nc0rdance on February 19, 2017.
 
The saying was printed on signs in the March for Science on April 22, 2017. “Marchers carried signs saying “build science not walls,” “ice has no agenda it just melts,” “we do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children,” “there is no planet B,” “no science? no beer” was printed in the Times of San Diego on April 22, 2017. “‘No science, no beer’ #marchforscienceau #auspol #brisbane” was posted on Twitter by 💧Siem Kew on April 22, 2017.
       
             
Wikipedia: March for Science 
The March for Science (formerly known as the Scientists’ March on Washington) is an international series of rallies and marches held on Earth Day. The inaugural march was held on April 22, 2017 in Washington, D.C., and more than 600 other cities across the world. According to organizers, the march is a non-partisan movement to celebrate science and the role it plays in everyday lives. The goals of the marches and rallies were to emphasize that science upholds the common good and to call for evidence-based policy in the public’s best interest.

Marchers carried signs saying “build science not walls,” “ice has no agenda it just melts,” “we do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children,” “there is no planet B,” “no science? no beer,” “climate change is real,” “science rocks,” and “science makes America great,” among many others.
     
23 April 2017, The Arizona Republic (Phoenix, AZ), “March for Science draws thousands: Families, students show support for taking care of, learning about planet"by Conner Borgelt and Alejandro Barahona, pg. A18:
Thousands turned out for Phoenix’s March for Science on Saturday, many wielding signs while pushing strollers or holding hands with their children.
(...)
Many had made their own signs. Some of the homemade slogans:
 
No science, no beer.
