Questions people ask
Who is Dana Beers?
Dana Beers is a Barstool Sports personality from Massachusetts. His Barstool bio calls him “Barstool’s resident beer drinker and documentarian” and says he became a fan of Barstool “during the newspaper days,” joined as Pardon My Take’s production intern in 2016 and went full time as a video producer in 2017. He produced and edited The Barstool Documentary Series and the Coach Prime series on Deion Sanders before becoming a full-time on-camera personality, and, as the bio puts it, he still edits his own videos.
Is Dana Beers still at Barstool? What happened to him?
Yes, he is still at Barstool as of October 16, 2026. Nothing dramatic is on the record: his work just moved from behind the camera to in front of it. His Barstool bio lists Big Boys Club episode 53 on October 14, 2026, where he co-hosts with T-Bob Hebert, Mike Katic and Ella Grif, and his YouTube posted One More Ep. 2, an interview about how Chef Donny got to Barstool, the same day. His own show, Yug Station, ran a first season in November 2025 and came back for a second in January 2026.
Did Dana Beers move to Chicago? Where does he live?
He has not said so in anything we could source, so we do not list a city. What is public: in February 2020 the Hingham Anchor reported that he lived in New York City for his Barstool job while still calling Hingham home. In 2023 Barstool moved part of its New York team, including Pardon My Take, to a new office in Chicago, per Bisnow, but no source we found says whether he was part of that move or why.
What was Zillion Beers?
His breakout, in February 2020. Per the Hingham Anchor, Zillion Beers was the name of a team in the Hingham Softball League that plays in memory of a local service member. Dana found the name funny, Barstool trademarked it and sold merchandise, and Dave Portnoy challenged him to sell $1 million of it over a weekend, with a prize if he did. The paper reported he passed $1.5 million in sales and gave his winnings to charity, including the Frates Family Foundation; in his own blog from February 11, 2020 he pledged part of the prize to the Pete Frates Family Foundation before the total was even in.
What is Dana Beers’ real name? What is his last name?
Dana Bahrawy, as printed by the Hingham Anchor in February 2020; Famous Birthdays gives the same name. Beers is the on-air name. He said as much himself in a February 2022 blog about Deion Sanders mentioning him on The Tonight Show: “sorry to break it to everybody, my last name isn’t actually Beers.”
How old is Dana Beers?
He is 34, born November 22, 1991, per Famous Birthdays.
Where is Dana Beers from?
Massachusetts. His Barstool bio says he was “born and bred in Massachusetts,” and the Hingham Anchor calls him a Hingham High School graduate who still considers Hingham home. We could not source where he went to college, so we leave that out.
How tall is Dana Beers?
He wrote that he is 6’4” in a December 2020 Barstool blog about asking his Instagram followers for golf swing tips.
Has Dana Beers been in any controversy? Does he have a Wikipedia page?
We could not find a controversy about him reported by major or trade press as of October 2026. English Wikipedia has no article about him.
Where can I watch Dana Beers?
Big Boys Club, new episodes every Thursday on Barstool’s feeds and his Barstool page; the One More interview series and older travel and food videos on YouTube @danabeers; clips on TikTok @dana_beers, Instagram @danabeers and X @danabeers. His bio also links him to Dana Learns, a series with Francis Ellis where he is taught a new subject each week, Scumbag Golf and Surviving Barstool Season 5, which aired in August and September 2026. Back in March 2020 he and Marty Mush played a virtual celebrity beer pong tournament for COVID relief.
What is Dana Beers’ net worth?
He does not publish a number and neither do we.
What about Dana Beers’ family or personal life?
Not something we cover.
Who represents Dana Beers?
He works as Barstool Sports talent, and his Barstool bio lists no agent or manager. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because people keep asking whether he is still at Barstool and what his real name is, and both answers are on the record. If that changes, this entry will say so.
Our read
Ames Create does not work with Dana Beers. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.
The format. Two things at once: the guy who will chug a beer on camera, and a trained video producer who can cut a documentary. Yug Station times guests’ chugs for a leaderboard, Big Boys Club is four people riffing once a week, and One More turns that producer instinct into interviews about how Barstool people got there.
Why it travels. Short drinking and food bits travel on their own: his TikTok has about 192,000 followers and about 15 million likes. Zillion Beers showed the other lever, a phrase from a Hingham softball league that turned into seven figures of merch once the audience decided it was theirs.
Brand fit. Beer, bar, golf and sports-viewing brands fit what he already does on camera, for 21+ audiences only. Big Boys Club already carries reads for brands like Venmo, Uncrustables and Shady Rays, so he is used to the format, and any deal would run through Barstool.
