Today is National Beer Day!
But ever wonder how this buzzworthy holiday came to be?
On April 7th 1993, the Cullen-Harrison Act went into effect, allowing people to brew and sell beer in the United States. This was the first step towards ending Prohibition in the United States — thanks to FDR who signed the Act with the famous remark: “I think this would be a good time for a beer.”
Fast forward to 2017 and here we are again on April 7… still agreeing with FDR & celebrating all the goodness that is beer 🍻
So why not go ahead and kick it with Postmates today? Here are three ways you can throw it back while still having fun in the sun with your favorite local eats.
1. Picnic… with a pale ale
A picnic with sandwiches & dessert — not to mention your favorite pale ale (such as Sierra Nevada) — is the perfect way to welcome Spring.
Food pairing: sandwiches + chocolates
2. Beach it… with lager or wheat beer
Ready to hit the beach? We recommend bringing along a lager, such as a Corona, to make your beach time that much more memorable.
Food pairing: fish tacos, chips & guacamole
3. Root for the home team… with an IPA or brown ale
You‘ll never strike out if you stick to the classics: Visit your town’s baseball field & root for the home team with a Lagunitas.
Food pairing: hot dogs or pizza
