Explore Committees
Our volunteer-led local Chapters bring BDOA into breweries, neighborhoods, and gathering places. Some meet just to have a beer together; others host trivia, competitions, fundraisers and events.
Getting started is approachable: a potential Chapter can begin with five local members, then build toward the 20-member requirement for official recognition.
No nearby Chapter? National games, online connections and community activities are still available.
From Chapter traditions to competitions and everyday meetups—these are the moments BDOA is building around.
