American Craft Beer Week, sponsored and promoted by the Brewers Association, kicks off its 2015 edition today, running from May 11 through May 17, 2015.
All 50 U.S. states are holding events this week, celebrating the business of craft beer in a multitude of different ways. It could be a beer dinner, a special beer tasting, an educational seminar, or a tap takeover. It’s a weeklong celebration of all things craft beer and there are no limits to the creative ways America’s craft beer businesses may choose to mark the occasion.
