The Brewers Association's American Beer Month was held in July until 2006 when it was changed to a weeklong event in May; right before summer's busy beer season. The weeklong event immediately became the largest national effort to focus on American craft brewers, and is still the largest event today!
Since 2006, participation has continued to increase, as you can see in the graph below.
It is predicted that all 50 states will particpate in this year's celebration! If you're looking for an event in your area, you can find local events at http://www.craftbeer.com/pages/news-and-events/american-craft-beer-week/acbw-events

So, mark your calendars and celebrate American craft beers May 16-22, 2011!
