We hope you all had fun celebrating National Beer Day earlier this month. But do you know what's better than a whole day dedicated to beer? Seven whole days dedicated to beer!

Milwaukee Beer Week is currently in the midst of its annual celebration of local and national craft beer tastings, tappings, pairings and collaboratings, running now through April 29 at numerous bars and restaurants across the city. 

"Milwaukee Beer Week is a celebration of the history of our city, and its growth and success over the past eight years is a testament to the incredible amount of passion and knowledge for craft beer that still exists today," said Dave Cartwright, craft sales manager for New Berlin-based beer wholesaler Beechwood Sales and Service, in a press release.

"We are grateful for the creativity and participation of our local and national partners who come together each year to help make this event a success. From sit down dinners to rare beer samplings, there is truly something for everyone."
