Just call him Ed Beeran!

“Eyes Closed” singerEd Sheeran, 32, made a surprise appearance at an Atlanta brewery on Saturday, where he poured pints and sang a few tunes hours before his headlining stadium show.

“So I’m in Atlanta and I’ve been told that there are some breweries that are good in Atlanta so I’m gonna go to this brewery, serve some beers, play a gig, and then buy everyone in the beer garden drinks,” he said in the clip. “Beers on me.”

After a short tour of the facilities, where he checked out a beer made of hemp and a canning line, Sheeran hopped behind the bar to serve the starstruck customers.

He then headed outside to the beer garden for a short acoustic set, during which he played “Eyes Closed” and “Perfect.”

“For one hour, drinks are on me,” he told the crowd. “Enjoy the free beers!”
