USBA was succeeded in 1986 by The Beer Institute -- for a little historical info, see: http://www.brewersadvocate.org/history.htm ---------- From: ahm <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Date: Tuesday, November 07, 2000 1:39 PM Does anyone have any information about the demise of the United States Brewers Association which was founded in 1862. It seems to have disbanded around 1986 but I cant get any information about why that happened.
