Dues

Membership begins the date we process payment and runs for 12 months.
All new members pay $300 for their first year and then pay by barrelage in future years.
You must pay dues on all products brewed in Colorado bearing your brand, including contracted and AP barrels brewed at other Colorado locations.
CBG dues are tax deductible as a business expense, not as a charitable contribution.
- U.S. law requires businesses to report the lobbying portion of their trade association dues as an after tax expense. We estimate that the portion of your dues that is NOT tax deductible is usually 30%. We will send out a notice at the end of each year with the exact percentage.

Access to the website and member content will not be immediately available after you have completed your application, all applications are reviewed by CBG staff and you will receive a welcome email when you are approved (generally within 48 hours).
