New Beer's EVE ~ 6 April Empty New Beer's EVE ~ 6 April

Once upon a time, the beer lovers of the United States were very sad. The government ratified the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, banning all intoxicating liquors, including beer, beginning the period of American history we now know as Prohibition. However, in 1933, the government saw the light and President Roosevelt ended Prohibition. The date was April 7, so now we celebrate New Beer’s Eve each year on April 6! So grab a beer and toast to your ability to drink it!

For lovers of all brews everywhere, the years of 1920 to 1933 were incredibly sad times.  This was the period of the Prohibition in the United States, where any and all forms of alcohol were verboten.  Thankfully in 1933, the United States government came to their senses, and President Roosevelt decided that this frothy brew should once again flow freely in the taverns and bars of the country.
