If I'm missing any that you feel should be on here, let me know.
And it will also be a busy month across the country. Kicking off the month is the Craft Brewers Conference in San Diego from May 2-5, then the Big Brew day to mark National Homebrew Day, and finally American Craft Beer Week from May 14-20. Check the websites for plenty of details on how to participate.
