Founded in 1938, the National Beer Wholesalers Association (NBWA) is a trade association that represents the interests of more than 3,000 licensed, independent beer distributors - with servicing every state and congressional district across the United States - before government and the public. NBWA works to strengthen the state-based system of alcohol regulation that facilitates an orderly marketplace; creates a transparent and accountable system of alcohol distribution that protects American consumers; and promotes responsibility in the manufacture, distribution, sale and consumption of alcohol.
