The 3rd Annual New England Craft Brew Summit
The Maine Brewers’ Guild is proud to present the third annual New England Craft Brew Summit. This is the premier
B2B event that gathers brewers, brewery owners, and decision makers in the craft beer industry together for one day.
This is your opportunity to connect with key leaders in this fast growing industry.
The Big Market for Local Beer
The theme of our 2018 conference will explore the ways in which breweries can grow their businesses in an
authentic way - staying deeply rooted in their community while capitalizing on new and expanding markets for
craft beer. From perspectives on financing strategies, to quality control practices, to a look at barrel aging and
sustainability in the brewhouse, as well as the importance of branding and customer service - we’ll explore growth
from the lens of brewers and brewery owners, as well as customer-facing staff.
New in 2018
This year, we have added a third track to the schedule, focusing on Front of House and Tasting Room Operations. In a
nod to the growing importance of tasting rooms for successful brewery businesses, we have an entire day of sessions
tailored to ensuring brewery visitors get a memorable, positive experience at your tasting room or brewpub, and how
to put on great events, as well as practical knowledge like draft system troubleshooting.
Holiday Inn by the Bay
The 2018 Summit will be in a new, more spacious venue - with all sessions and the expo under one roof. We will host
the event in downtown Portland at the Holiday Inn by the Bay, offering ample room for all breakout sessions and
more space for our increasingly popular vendor exhibition. All meals and beer sampling will be in the Vendor Hall to
ensure maximum opportunity for networking at the event.
Organizers expect the event to sell out.
Special Guests
Tim Brady, Beer Server Training Manual Instructor at the Brewers Association
A brewer himself and owner of Whetstone Station Restaurant and Brewery, Tim knows that the key to success is
great service; that great service comes from great staff, and great staff comes from great training. With vast front-line
experience in hospitality, Tim will provide insight on how to train staff to create expectional service in breweries.
