The Importance of the Beer Culture Center

9/17/2025
The Beer Culture Center was founded by Liz Garabay, a long-time museum professional.

The idea came to life and has now presented hundreds exhibits and events around the country. It’s important and necessary work, one everyone in the industry should be supporting. The center also hosts the annual Beer Culture Summit, a multi-day, multi-disciplinary experience that tells the story of beer, its people, its history, and its importance.
