Here in Cincinnati, we are just a few days away from Opening Day of the new baseball season. At It’s Your Party Everyday, we are big fans of America’s past-time and bigtime Cincy Reds fans. One reason we love baseball is because you get the chance to sit back, enjoy the summer, and have a beer. And with the recent craft beer explosion (in particularly here in the ‘Nati) the Reds’ Great American Ballpark has added a whole slew of incredible craft beers with a focus on local brews.

In order to make sure that we enjoy this new feature to the fullest, IYPEveryday has created the #GABPBeerChallenge for Great American Ballpark. Below you can find our checklist to make sure you try each and every one of the newest options. (List is subject to change.)
**PARTYHACK: Track your beers on the mobile app Untappd where you can rate your faves & learn what new beers your pals are trying! You can even put these beers on a wish list to make sure you drink ’em all!**

As with all of our drinking games, be smart & be safe. Have a designated driver & drink plenty of water (especially in those dog days of summer where you can get dehydrated).
