The fourth annual NH Craft Brew Conference & Tradeshow brings together individuals seeking to learn, develop and explore their passion for craft beer.

NHCBC is curated for independent craft brewers, by independent craft brewers and provides an invaluable opportunity for brewers to learn from one another and discuss their needs. The event is also designed to be relevant to everyone working at breweries or in the craft brewing and hospitality industry — whether in brewing, sales, beertending, front of the house, operations, buyers, suppliers, or marketing.

As part of NHCBC, attendees will be able to interact with a variety of industry partners, as well as participate in a full day of educational sessions in three tracks: technical brewing, business leadership/operations, and hospitality. You'll have the opportunity to speak with fellow brewers and industry professionals and attend a full vendor exhibition and trade show.

We are honored to host this year's Keynote speaker, Trevor Rose-Hamblin, Head Brewer and Co-Founder of Old Irving Brewing Co in Chicago, IL. His constant efforts to give back and help to de-stigmatize the conversation about mental health in our community are ever-present. During his address, he will speak about his deeply personal encounter with the matter as well as his professional efforts to support the industry he holds near and dear.

The NH Craft Brew Conference & Tradeshow will feature dozens of sponsors and industry partners on exhibit for the duration of the event — please visit our website for a list of participating vendors soon!

In addition, attendees will enjoy a continental breakfast, luncheon, light refreshments throughout the event, and a "Hoppy" Hour celebration with several NH beers on tap (21+plus**) to round out the conference.

**Please note anyone sampling beer during the event will be subject to an ID check. Please bring a valid ID to the conference if you plan to partake.
