The Week Ahead in Beer: Go Fourth and enjoy all the brews this holiday
The Fourth of July falls on a Thursday this year, potentially giving lots of folks an extended weekend to enjoy things blowing up in the sky and cold beers in their hands. We are working on compiling the holiday-standard list of brewery opening hours, closings, and any other schedule alterations, but so far those have been slow in appearing on social media. There will still be some breweries open, with at least two having live music on Thursday (see below), and others firing up the fun today (Wednesday), Friday, and Saturday. Above all else, though, stay safe out there. Holiday weekends tend to get a little dangerous on the roads late at night, so please use ride shares and designated drivers, or just grab some local craft beer to take home and stay safe there.
