Cheers to Freedom: The Story of New Beer’s Eve
Celebrating the Return of America's Favorite Brew
Repealing Prohibition, One Beer
Once there was a time when the beer enthusiasts in the United States felt quite unhappy. In 1920, the government approved the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, prohibiting all alcoholic beverages, including beer, marking the start of the era in American history known as Prohibition. Nevertheless, in 1933, Prohibition was brought to a close. The date was April 7, which is why we celebrate New Beer’s Eve annually on April 6! So take a beer and raise a toast to your capacity to enjoy it!
