It’s American Craft Beer Week, an annual celebration of independent craft brewing organized by the Brewers Association. Simply put, it’s a nationwide, beery bonanza. Here in Delaware, breweries are joining in on the fun with the return of the Keep The Pint program.

This event kicks off on Thursday, May 15, and was coordinated by the Delaware Brewer’s Guild, a nonprofit advocating in government and community affairs on behalf of all Delaware craft breweries.

Back by Popular Demand

“Keep The Pint was a huge success last year,” says Jimmy Vennard, president of the Delaware Brewers Guild and founder of Autumn Arch Beer Project. “Customers have been asking about the next pint glass, so we’re excited to meet the anticipation this year and build off of last year’s momentum.”

Better Get Going

Craft beer fans need to act quickly if they want to nab this year’s pint glass. Last year, most breweries sold out in just a few hours. The early bird gets the worm, or — in this case — the early beer drinker keeps the pint. (That doesn’t flow as well, but you get the point.) Happy hunting!
