About National Homebrew Day
Held on the first Saturday in May, National Homebrew Day is an opportunity to fire up the kettle and raise a glass to the greatest hobby there is— homebrewing!
In 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed a law that made homebrewing beer without federal taxation legal for the first time since Prohibition began in 1920.
Also known as Big Brew Day, this is a chance for all home brewers get together, have fun, and celebrate the art of making beer.
