The Nebraska Craft Brewery Board’s mission, “Grow Local. Brew Local. Buy Local,” is the inspiration behind the goal of growing the state’s craft brewery industry.

To help achieve that goal, the Nebraska Craft Brewery Board is seeking project proposals from growers, industry organizations, state and local agencies, educational groups, and others to fund research, development and marketing projects in Nebraska’s craft brewing industry. The board anticipates allocating approximately $120,000 in grants to fund such projects. The deadline to submit proposals is April 30.

Applications, instructions, program guidelines, and performance measures are available online at craftbreweryboard.nebraska.gov/application-instructions.
