It’s a really fun organization to be apart of. It’s on the come up so jump on the train early!!
The BDOA membership cards started off as a gag gift with friends, but turned in to so much more. I’ve made friends all across the United States, had recommendations made for new drinks to try I’ve never heard of, and I was able to meet some of my new friends in person. The Discord server has been a great source of conversation, laughs, and sharing what drinks are flowing among the members. I highly recommend joining and checking out the community that’s continuing to grow.
Loving the BDOA family and well on the way to growing a chapter in South Carolina. Between the Friday trivia, networking, and Hayden’s dedication to members, it really feels like a little family♥️
This is great and I am trying to start a chapter here in the Chicagoland suburbs. I have half a dozen pubs in mind and now I need some avid beer drinkers in the area so we can get it started. great idea for a fun time.
Recently joined a few months ago, I enjoy seeing and hearing about groups and things they are doing. Hearing about different beers to try.
