The Michigan Brewers Guild is a non-profit corporation dedicated to increasing sales of Michigan brewed beer through promotions, marketing, public awareness, and consumer education while monitoring and assuring a healthy beer industry within the state. The Brewers Guild has three levels of membership - brewery, allied trade, and enthusiast. All levels are renewed annually. A brewery member can be any company that holds a brewer, microbrewer, or brewpub license issued by the State of Michigan. An allied trade member can be any company commercially involved in the sale, promotion, or distribution of beer, or in the sale, promotion, production, or distribution of goods or services used by the craft beer industry. An enthusiast member can be any person who does not qualify as a brewery member or an allied trade member, but wishes to support the Brewers Guild on a personal level. Enthusiast members receive early entry to the Guild's beer festivals, a T-shirt, invitations to VIP brewery tours, and discounts at member breweries. The website also includes information on beer and food pairing, cooking with food, beer styles and ingredients (including locally sourced hops and barley tied to Michigan's agricultural industry) and beer-cations and brewery tourism options around the state - tied in the Pure Michigan campaign. Regular updates can be found on the Guild's blog, (the MASH ), available on their website. Information regularly includes festival beer and brewery lists, local hotel information, ticket outlets, and press releases regarding member breweries. Information about beer and food pairings, beer styles and ingredients (including locally sourced hops and barley) as well as suggested beer-cations and brewery tourism options are also available online. ==History== The Michigan Brewers Guild was founded by representatives from thirty different Michigan brewing operations December 1997 as an organization dedicated to championing the cause of craft brewed beer in the State of Michigan. There are currently 119 member breweries in the Michigan Brewers Guild representing over 90% of the brewing licenses in the state. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Michigan Brewers Guild」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
