Roosevelt<\/em><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Each year, since 2009, April 7th is \u201cNational Beer Day\u201d\u2014a celebration in which glasses are raised, beer is enjoyed throughout the day (sometimes with every meal\u2026). And, certainly, it\u2019s a perfect time to enjoy a frosty cold beverage with family, friends and co-workers.<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with the festivities, Spaghetti Warehouse is celebrating #NationalBeerDay on Saturday, April 7th, with a special offer\u2014just $5 for a 22-ounce draft beer.<\/p>\n<p>Just c\u2019mon in and visit any of our locations and our bartenders and servers will be ready with a beer on tap!

Just let us know what you like, and we\u2019ll fill up your glass with a beer that\u2019s bound to satisfy your thirst.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you might ask just how did this barley-inspired holiday get its start?<\/p>\n<p> Way back in 1933 and just a few months before the \u201cofficial\u201d end of Prohibition, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law the Cullen-Harrison Act\u2014a bill that allowed people to buy, sell and drink beer that had 4 percent alcohol by volume (ABV).<\/p>\n<p>Passage of the law also touched off the first \u201cbeer bash\u201d you might say. On the first day in which the law went into effect, more than 1.5 million barrels of beer were sold!<\/p>\n<p>To mark the occasion, FDR is reported as saying, \u201cI think this would be a good time for a beer\u201d. We couldn\u2019t agree more!<\/p>\n<p>A few decades later, National Beer Day became an official holiday\u2014thanks to Justin Smith and his friend, Mike Connolly. After a good deal of prodding by Connolly, Smith started a Facebook page that, in turn, caught the attention of a beer examiner in Colorado. It wasn\u2019t long after that, Smith was rewarded for his efforts when the beer drinking app \u201cUntappd\u201d created a \u2018badge\u2019 for National Beer Day\u2014rewarding participants who checked into the app while drinking a beer on April 7th.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeer Day\u201d promises to be a busy one. After all, the U.S. ranks second only to China in both total beer consumption and production. According to one survey, it\u2019s estimated there are more than 3,000 breweries in a country that\u2019ll manufacture roughly 196 million barrels annually.<\/p>\n<p>So, mark it on your calendar\u2014National Beer Day on Saturday, April 7th\u2014and be sure to visit Spaghetti Warehouse, head over to the bar and enjoy your 22-oz. draft beer for just $5. And, don\u2019t worry, it\u2019s a holiday and having a beer is always a good reason to celebrate!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Famous \u201cFirst Round\u201d Credited to Former President Franklin D.
