The Brewers Association (BA) Technical Committee‘s six subcommittees are seeking to add new members with varied backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. The annual recruitment period will begin in October.
By serving on a subcommittee— Draught Beer Quality, Maintenance and Engineering, Quality, Safety, Supply Chain, or Sustainability— you can be part of timely industry discussions with your craft beer peers and help conceptualize and create technical resources, contributing to the benefit of the entire craft beverage industry.
Click on each subcommittee name above to see a list of recent resources crafted by the six technical subcommittees.
A typical time commitment includes one hour per month for regular online meetings as well as some additional time outside of meetings for contributing to ongoing discussions and resource development. Time commitments vary depending on subcommittee activity and the ways in which people contribute are flexible to align with their interests, skills, and life obligations.
Anyone with the following may apply:
The desire to collaborate with peers and share ideas and experiences.
Availability to meet virtually and contribute on projects outside of meetings.
A willingness to help create resources that are beneficial to craft brewers.
An interest in the subject matter and/or willingness to learn.
Passion for and involvement in the craft beer industry.
A beginner’s eye and a professional’s perspective. You do not need to be an expert.
BA staff and the respective subcommittee chairs will look at the interested individuals list and reach out with an email. From there, BA staff will set up a 30-minute virtual meeting between the interested individual, BA staff, and subcommittee representatives to answer questions and get to know one another. The subcommittee will then deliberate, and an invitation will or will not be extended.
