“MBAA is a great tool to get you involved with our ever-changing industry and keep you thinking about different possibilities in your line of work—whatever that may be. There is really interesting research being done out there and being a member gives me the opportunity to
remain informed. In addition, the meetings are a great way to meet other people in the industry and spend time with your coworkers in an educational as well as a social environment. You share tables and clink glasses with people who fill many different roles in the brewing world—I have something to learn from everyone I meet.”
