Sharon Osbourne looked right at home in Merlins Café Bar in Birmingham as she cracked open a bottle of beer made to commemorate her late husband, Ozzy Osbourne.

The 73-year-old was visiting the horror-themed establishment during the run-up to World Ozzy Day on July 22.

While there, Mrs O grabbed a Patient Number 9 beer from the fully stocked fridge and effortlessly opened the beverage with a bottle opener before toasting to the Black Sabbath frontman.

She then proceeded to chug the beer and joked with owner Martin Fox that if she ever needed another job, she’d work behind his bar.

But Sharon didn’t stop there, she continued to down the drink, giving it another good swig and an enthusiastic nod of approval.

The bottled beverage, made by Hobsons Brewery Co. ‘marks the first official Ozzy Osbourne Day on 2︎2︎ July and the launch of the first beer in a series celebrating the man who gave the world heavy metal’, according to its website.

It said: ‘It’s a tribute to the Prince of Darkness, his legacy, and the region that forged him.’

And the former X Factor judge looks like she’s given it a resounding yes after enjoying some substantial gulps.

The bar itself wrote about the experience on Instagram: ‘What an unforgettable, funny, and utterly surreal experience for our staff, customers, and friends who were in the building to witness it. Mrs. O officially gets the Merlin’s stamp of approval (and her apron is waiting whenever she wants to start)!’

Sharon collaborated with the post on her own social media and fans thoroughly enjoyed the content.

Another, the_slender_them, couldn’t believe the scenes: ‘Wait what?! I would genuinely love to see them work the bar.’

And littemisssadface simply called it ‘iconic’.
