International #GruitDay

What is a Gruit Beer ?
It’s a beer that uses an ingredient – other than hops as its primary bettering agent – like the use of Juniper or Bog Myrtle.
What is #GruitDay ?
Since 2013, craft brewers with an interest in making gruit ales have banded together to mark February 1 as International Gruit Day. The day is intended to pay homage to the historical traditions of brewing with botanicals.
