Happy Monday! Trying to keep positive during self isolation? Well, here's something to celebrate: April 6th is New Beer's Eve! It's the anniversary of the day before the end of Prohibition in 1933. From 1920-1933 in the U.S. people couldn't obtain alcohol legally. On April 7th, 1933 that changed as Prohibition was repealed. The first 24 hours saw an estimated 1.5 million gallons of beer consumed. 1st City is still closed for now, but you can celebrate at home. Stay home, stay safe, take care of yourself and we will see you again when things get back to normal. Cheers! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/new-beers-eve/
