Master Brewers Association of the Americas

The Master Brewers Association of the Americas (MBAA) was founded in 1887. It publishes the Technical Quarterly, a technical journal; some of the articles are peer-reviewed.[1]

One of the original officers elected at the Association's first convention in March 1887 was William Gerst Sr. who would serve as its second president 1889-1891. A widely respect brewer in Nashville, Tennessee, Gerst is also remembered for winning the 1910 Kentucky Derby with his horse Donau. [2]
