2024 Board of Directors Election: Oct. 16 through Nov. 13

The 2024 Brewers Association (BA) Board of Directors election runs Oct. 16 through Nov. 13. Voting members of the association will have the option to vote online or by mail-in ballot. Voting member criteria are described by the BA's bylaws.

Four board positions are open : two for the packaging brewer class, one for the pub brewer class, and one for the taproom brewer class. Positions start in February 2025.

Voting Guidelines

  • Only one ballot per member brewing company will be counted (NOT one vote per location).
  • Each voting member brewery should only vote in one category. If you are unsure which category is correct, you can vote in all three. We will review your ballot and retain the votes in the correct category.
  • Voting member criteria are described by the BA bylaws (no breweries in planning, suppliers etc.).

Note: Only vote(s) in your voting membership class will count.
