National Beer Day is celebrated annually on April 7th in the United States, commemorating the day in 1933 when the Cullen-Harrison Act went into effect, allowing for the legal sale of beer with an alcohol content of up to 3.2% by weight (or 4.05% by volume) after a long period of prohibition. This day marked the beginning of the end of Prohibition in the United States, with people gathering outside breweries and taverns to celebrate their newfound freedom to enjoy beer legally. National Beer Day is a celebration of beer as a beverage with a rich history and cultural significance, enjoyed by millions around the world. It’s an opportunity for beer enthusiasts to explore different styles and flavors of beer, from traditional ales and lagers to craft brews and experimental varieties. Breweries, bars, and restaurants often host events and offer special deals to mark the occasion. It’s a day for friends and communities to come together, raise a glass, and toast to the art and enjoyment of brewing and consuming beer.
