About the IFBB

Supporting the Family Owned Breweries

The IFBB represent all that is best in the world of British pubs and British beers. For generations these businesses have carefully nurtured and improved their properties, to provide a warm welcome and great beer, and often a bite to eat or a place to stay.

Our focus

Our primary focus for 2010 is

Recruitment of licensees– we value and invest in the team we have, and will continue to do so through bringing in and nurturing new talent within the industry

Beer quality training – we are passionate about serving quality beers in good pubs, and licensees joining IFBB member brewers will be trained to keep and serve an excellent pint of cask ale

The next generation of drinkers – we are committed to attracting the next generation of cask ale drinkers through brand development, innovation and investment, in response to consumer demand

Message from our Chairman

"The Independent Family Brewers of Britain represent all that is best in the world of UK beer and pubs."
