National Beer Day is beer — sorry, I mean here — and it’s time to celebrate.
Observed April 7 each year, it’s a celebration of the beginning of the end of Prohibition in the U.S. That was the date in 1933 when the Cullen-Harrison Act went into effect under President Franklin Roosevelt. The law allowed beer and wine to be sold and consumed, as Forbes noted.
These days, alcohol is definitely legal. And Thursday, it’s even cheaper than usual. Here are a few retailers running deals on National Beer Day, as reported by Money Talks News, Slickdeals and others:
