December 10th, 2025 is National Lager Day

Most of what we regard as American beer is what is known as lager, a cold brewed and stored beer that is light in flavor as well as color. This type of beer is a common ingredient in many of CDK's recipes. Today would be a good time to print some out; it's National Lager Day!
