American Craft Beer Week 2007

In past years, the Brewers Association (and its predecessor, the Association of Brewers) has promoted an unwieldy month-long celebration of American Beer Month. By definition, that produced the unintended and insalubrious result of praising American mega-brewery beers.

Now, it's a much more succinct American Craft Beer Week.

Clipper City Brewing Company will be celebrating American Craft Beer Week with several events, including the Brewer's (sic) Association of Maryland Springfest (well that's actually on on Saturday 12 May, 2 days before the week begins), a tour of the brewery on Saturday 19 May, and, sandwiched between the two, a cask ale beer dinner at Magnolias at the Mill in Purcellville, Virginia.

Our friends at Max's Tap House will be celebrating for the entire week. Cellarman/manager Casey Hard and bar manager Bob Simko have planned an extensive draft line-up of American craft beers. Click here for more details on Max's celebration.
