Working groups

EBCU has a number of different Working Groups, each focused on a particular area of internal and external activity. Every group includes at least one representative from the EBCU Executive Committee, along with delegates from our member organisations and other volunteers. Together, they collaborate to drive forward EBCU’s mission of championing beer consumers and promoting beer culture across Europe.
