As all Americans know, Independence Day is a celebration of the United States declaring it's freedom from the control of Great Britain. What you may not know is that Independence Eve, a brand new celebration spearheaded by the chaps at Newcastle, honors what could have been. They feel that since American brewers can exploit Independence Day to sell more American beer, why shouldn't there be a holiday designed specifically to sell British beer and to ponder "what if we won".

On July 3rd, Independence Eve, pick up a Newcastle Brown Ale and toast to the country that nearly ran this one (it was super close!). While you're at it, be sure to check-in to at least one (1) Newcastle Brown Ale and you will unlock a brand new badge showing your support.elp Newcastle celebrate the land that nearly became "Great Britain 2."
