Cheers to National Beer Day!

Today marks the 82nd year since the Cullen-Harrison Act (signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt) went into effect and ended the 13 year darkness known as Prohibition. On this day in 1933, people could start buying, selling, and drinking beer again. People across the country gathered outside of breweries, bars, and clubs to get their first legally sold beer with over 1.5 million barrels of beer consumed that day.
