We are always, and I mean always, excited about our work with the Virginia Beer Wholesalers Association. Between the knowledge Theran is accruing about arcane ABC laws and the changing nature of the beer industry, and the relationships we've developed with a group of business people who are serious about their future, every engagement we have is energetic and positive.
This summer should be no different, as we welcome almost 30 young leaders from more than a dozen companies across Virginia to be part of the VBWA Next Generation program. Theran and I will spend seven months with this cohort, exploring elements of leadership and growing their understanding of and ability to lead within the beer industry in Virginia.
