Board of Directors Background Info

The MN Craft Brewers Guild is a membership association made of up, and led by, members of the MN craft brewing industry. Board members propel the mission, vision, and values of the MN Craft Brewers Guild. Members of the board bring their perspective and experience to think strategically, provide input on important Guild initiatives, and make decisions that benefit all craft breweries and brewpubs in the state of Minnesota. The Guild’s board is not a working board, concerned with the daily operations of the Guild. Rather, they are a strategic leadership board. They are also responsible for overseeing the MNCBG staff and ensuring the fiscal health of the organization. View our current Board.
