Support Your Local Brewery
We interrupt the normal Beer Mapping Project postings to bring you something that we as beer aficionados should all be concerned with. The Brewers Association has created a new site, with a new goal. A quote from the new site can say it better than I can.
“Support Your Local Brewery is a national, grassroots partnership of beer enthusiasts, professional trade associations and brewers dedicated to supporting and protecting the legislative and regulatory interests of small, traditional and independent craft breweries.
Beer Activists are the Minutemen and Minutewomen of the brewing community. Just as the patriots of the revolutionary Minute Man Guard answered a fledgling nation’s call to action, Beer Activists support their local brewery at a moment’s notice. When you become a beer activist you’ll be asked to respond to Beer Activist E-Action Alerts sent to your e-mail inbox. Your help will be needed to contact your legislative representatives when state or federal regulatory initiatives threaten the livelihood of your local brewery.”
Their goal is to support craft breweries by keeping up with a database of craft beer enthusiasts that are able to answer their “call to action”. If you are interested in craft beer in the United States, you should sign up for their “E-Action Alert”. Also make sure to check the “know the issues” page to see what battles are being fought at the moment in the world of craft beer.
