Beer Me Some History Tonight
Although the 21st Amendment would be ratified several months later, a great burden was lifted off the shoulders of soaks everywhere at midnight on April 7, 1933: prohibition of the sale of beer of no more than 3.2% alcohol by weight. It's been 76 years, and America still loves to imbibe, so head over to Goose Island Brewery (1800 N. Clybourn) tonight from 6:30-9pm to celebrate with the Chicago History Museum. Beers, appetizers, lectures about Prohibition, and a limited edition History Pub Crawl brew are yours for the sipping. Tickets $45-50.
