Novel Coronavirus Resource Center

The Novel Coronavirus continues to have a dramatic impact on public health and well-being, world financial markets, and the global economy. We understand our members and ticket holders concerns about preparedness and safety. Below are some helpful resources to consider for your brewery.

Indiana Small Business Development Center COVID-19 Economic Impact Survey

Are you an entrepreneur or small business owner that has been or anticipates being impacted by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic? The Indiana SBDC is collecting data on behalf of the State of Indiana to provide more clarity and to work toward the ability to apply for disaster loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration. #INSmallBiz owners are encouraged to fill out this form ASAP. 

Brewers Association COVID-19 Impact Survey

As a member of the craft brewing community, we want to know how the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting your business. We want to support our community through advocacy and education. Participating in this short survey will allow us to rapidly communicate with policymakers on which responses will be most helpful to our small brewery members.

Thank you in advance for your input and for lending your voice.

Coronavirus and Bloomington Craft Beer Festival

The Brewers of Indiana Guild has been carefully monitoring the developing situation around the Novel Coronavirus as it relates to Bloomington Craft Beer Festival. We have been following the recommendations and developmentments of the Centers for Disease Control, the World Health Organization, and state and local governments. 

With the most recent developments over the last 24 hours we have made the difficult decision to cancel Bloomington Craft Beer Festival, scheduled for Saturday, April 11th. Although we are saddened by this decision we have decided that this action is in the best interest of our attendees, members, employees and the craft beer community. We are disappointed that we will not have the opportunity to celebrate Indiana Craft Beer with all the amazing fans and family in Bloomington. 

Ticket holders will receive an email with refund information within the next couple of days. 

While it is heartbreaking to miss the event, the safety and health of our fans, friends, families and community is our primary concern. We hope to be able to see all of you at the 25th Anniversary of Indiana Microbrewers Festival, July 25th. Until then we will do our best to continue to support our members and community through this challenging experience.
