April 7, 1933--a date which will live in infamy (if you were a member of the WCTU or the Anti-Saloon League)-- marked the 75th anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition--but only for beer. Other liquors got their freedom about eight months later.
OK, so today is April 8. But I say better to celebrate a day later than never. And just to see if you're up to snuff history-wise, click below for a comprehensive Prohibition Quiz. The PubScout will be the tester and you will be the, um, testees. And while you're testing, have a glass of your favorite brew, say a silent "Thanks" to Herbert Hoover and all those who worked to allow you to have that brew--legally, of course.
Cheers!
