Why Join BDOA Instead of Just Going to a Bar?
A bar gives you a place to drink.
Beer Drinkers of America gives you a community to belong to.
BDOA gives beer a bigger purpose: people to meet, events to join, competitions to enter, Chapters to build, and a nationwide community to represent.
When you become a member, you are not just buying a card. You are joining an organized beer community with members across the country who gather, compete, connect, and help build something real.
Drinking is never required. BDOA is about community, activities, and bringing beer drinkers together in a fun, official way.
