The USBG is turning 75 and it’s time to celebrate, in style! The current USBG offers its three branches offer education, networking and competitions, as well as a charity arm focused on bartender wellness programs and relief funds, and an accreditation program going up to Master Mixologist. The USBG provides members with an instant network when they relocate to a new city or state, and its presence helps with the overall public perception of those who tend to view bartending as a college or in-between-jobs gig rather than the honed craft and lifelong profession that it is for many.

Cheers to another 75 years!
