​What is Brewing Summit?​

​​Brewing Summit is a joint conference between the American Society of Brewing Chemists (ASBC) and the Master Brewers Association of the Americas that is known for combining the expertise of the two societies to increase networking and collaboration across the brewing industry.​ Historically, Brewing Summit has brought together professionals from across the spectrum of technical and operational specialties to share knowledge and spark innovation in the years when ASBC and Master Brewers weren’t hosting their annual meetings.

Starting in 2025, these two brewing organizations will unite annually—except for the years of World Brewing Congress—to explore the forefront of brewing science, innovation, and industry standards. This new meeting format offers a collaborative, science-driven environment for brewing professionals to promote knowledge exchange and advance the field.


Brewing Summit 2025: Evolving in a New Environment

It’s no secret that the brewing landscape has changed over the years due to supply chain issues, changes in consumer demands, and sustainability challenges. This year’s program theme—Evolving in a New Environment—reinforces the need for brewers, scientists, and innovators to explore how to maintain brewing’s rich heritage while adapting to modern demands and challenges.

​We invite you to join us August 13–15, 2025, in Palm Desert, California, for robust discussions around ingredient innovation to production methods and sustainable practices to ensure resilience and growth in a new, ever-changing environment.
