The Independent Brewers Association has partnered with its US counterpart, the US Brewers Association, to unlock more resources for its members.

The US Brewers Association and the IBA share a commitment to supporting our members to refine their craft and deliver consistently delicious beer to the market through the provision of high quality technical resources.

“The independent beer movement has always been about community. At the IBA we are excited to be exploring more ways that we can work with other international associations that share the same commitment to promoting and protecting independent breweries and be an active part of our global indie community.

We are very excited to announce this partnership with the US Brewers Association. Access to the USBA’s Resource Hub will double the volume of technical resources available to our members – at no additional cost to them. At a time when the economic environment is becoming even more challenging, this is a practical way we can continue to support brewers to make the highest quality beer” says Sabrina Kunz, Chief Executive Officer of the IBA.

The USBA technical resources provide best-practice guidance around safety, food safety, sustainability, and more to strengthen business practices and ensure operational efficiency and long-term business health.

IBA members can access the resources through their Member Portal. Can’t remember how to log in or need help with your password? Get in touch at membership@iba.org.au for assistance.
