National Beer Day is always on April 7, and this year, it happens to fall on a Friday so you can start your weekend with an after-work brew.

Here are a few ways to honor the drinkable holiday locally:

Try Atrium Brewing’s new Wild Wild Midwest brew. The hop-forward American Wheat Beer drops today at both the Logan Street and Norton Commons locations.
Sip on some of TEN20 Craft Brewery’s 1834 American Lager— it’s being released in four-pack cans at both the Butchertown and Anchorage taprooms today.
Get an early start to your Saturday morning with a key lime sour at Gallant Fox. The Clifton brewery is opening at 11 a.m. to accommodate the Frankfort Avenue Easter Parade.
Head to Gravely Brewing tomorrow night for its Record High’s 80’s Era Edition event at 10 p.m. Dress for the theme and avoid a $5 cover charge.
Swap your usual Sunday morning plans for brunch + beer at Against the Grain Brewery and Public House downtown.
Try 3rd Turn Brewing's new salted caramel doughnut stout, a collaboration with Dough Baby Doughnuts that debuted this week.
Start channeling summer vibes with Butchertown Brewing's newest can release, Imperial Sunsets. The Piná Colada-inspired brew is sweet and gluten-free.

Bonus:
Mark your calendars for more hoppy times, because Louisville Ale Trail's third-annual Louisville Beer Appreciation Day is coming up on Tuesday, May 2. Louisvillians are encouraged to pour a pint and join a city-wide toast at 5:02 p.m. to commemorate this special day in the 502.
