Aloha!

The American Society of Brewing Chemists (ASBC) and the Master Brewers Association of the Americas (MBAA) with active participation by the Brewery Convention of Japan (BCOJ), the European Brewery Convention (EBC), and the Institute of Brewing & Distilling (IBD) are coming together once again to bring you World Brewing Congress 2008.

WBC offers you a learning experience that goes beyond your standard industry meeting! At WBC 2008 you will have the chance to join in discussions, share case studies with your peers, and discover solutions to your daily challenges. These five great brewing associations only come together once every four years. Why wait until 2012 to hear what’s new in the brewing industry.

Representatives from over 600 companies have attended the two past congresses. Combined with over 100 exhibitors and an outstanding program, World Brewing Congress is the brewing event to attend in 2008. Make plans now to enjoy what Hawaii has to offer while taking advantage of the extensive education and networking opportunities of WBC 2008.

Mahalo,
