Brew Talks to Discuss the Rapidly Evolving Beer Industry

Brewbound will host the next Brew Talks Virtual event on Thursday, July 15 from 3 p.m. ET to 5 p.m. ET on Brewbound.com.

Brew Talks, Brewbound's industry meetup, is presented by Dogfish Head. The free event series -- which usually occurs alongside the Craft Brewers Conference, the Great American Beer Festival and NBWA's Annual Convention -- has evolved into a virtual platform for brewers, distributors and retailers to engage in honest conversations about the state of the beer industry and how to best navigate the market.
