Beer Can Appreciation Day
Beer Can Appreciation Day in 1935 commemorates the great day in 1935, when beer was first sold in cans.

Krueger took the risk with the American Can Company just weeks before Prohibition was repealed.. The hefty steel cans opened with a church key, weighing in at 4 ounces. Loyal Krueger's drinkers favored the can over the bottle 9-1.
