Recognized nationwide among beer enthusiasts, National Beer Day is an unofficial holiday in the United States celebrated every year on April 7, celebrating the ability to buy sell and drink beer for the first time in 13 years.
National Beer Day is a celebration of the Cullen–Harrison Act being signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on March 22. That law went into effect on April 7 allowing people to buy sell and drink beer again as long as it was < 3.2% (4% ABV). Today, April 7 is recognized as National Beer Day and April 6 is known as New Beer's Eve.
