The 99th Anniversary of Prohibition is This Week

Tuesday is a dry day in our nation’s history. That’s right, it’s the 99th anniversary of Prohibition. According to history.com, on January 16,1919 “The
18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, prohibiting the ‘manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purpose’.

What
a bummer.

But, don’t get too upset! Because after a long 14 years our boy, FDR, won the Oval Office on a platform promising American a repeal of Prohibition if he won. He obviously won. And now, 99 years after the beginning of this madness we can celebrate!

Here is my list of a few of my favorite Boise breweries. CHEERS!

• Payette Brewing Company
• Lost Grove Brewing
• 10 Barrel Brewing
• Boise Brewing
• White Dog Brewing Co.

Cheers! It’s time to celebrate!! Only question is, where are you gonna go first?!
