Organisation & Mission


Founded in 1958 and based in Brussels, The Brewers of Europe is the voice of the European brewing sector to the European institutions and international organisations.

Current members are the national brewers¡¯ associations from 23 countries (20 EU Member States, plus Norway, Switzerland and Turkey).

The Brewers of Europe encourages an open dialogue between its members in relation to all issues falling in the remit of the association.

By promoting its interests and advising the EU institutions on all aspects of policy and legislation affecting the brewing sector, The Brewers of Europe is thus able to inform the institutions of its special needs and to ensure that legislative initiatives take their requirements into consideration.
