National Beer Day - 2015

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Zion Realty

April 7th is National Beer Day. Why is National Beer Day celebrated on April 7th? This date marks the end of Prohibition when citizens were once again allowed to buy, sell, and consume alcohol after a twelve year ban. Also known as the Cullen-Harrison Act which was signed in to law by President Roosevelt on March 22, 1933 but officially went in to effect on April 7th of that year. 

So if you are a brother of the brew, a sultan of suds, or a connoisseur of craft beer, pull up a stool because today is your day! It is estimated that there are over 3,000 breweries in the United States alone ranging from giants in the industry to local craft beer makers. These breweries are responsible for making close to 200 million barrels of beer every year. 

Local craft breweries have exploded on to the beer scene over the past five years giving consumers a never before seen variety of tastes to please every palate. If you are in my home state here in Arizona and enjoy a tall cold beer, visit one of these local micro-breweries today for National Beer Day and as always, drink responsibly:

Nicole,

 I used to be not much of a beer fan but there are some wonderful craft beers. I try not to drink during the week only on weekends too many calories! Drink one for me!

Hi Nicole - Thanks for the heads up. I'm pretty sure we've got some brews in the fridge, and it's after 5, so I don't mind if I do. Cheers!

That is an excellent idea Nicole Doty - Gilbert Real Estate Expert.  My nice husband reminded me that he has a race coming up, so no drinking prior.  Gym tonight, beer Sunday.

I love the history lesson and great picture. I guess I will have to celibrate a day late here. 

I would say it looks like you guys have had a beer brewery explosion.  I dont have quite the selection but I guess I will have to go with old reliable Point Special down the street. 

thanks this is a awsome post
