The Craft Advisory Council was created as a leadership body to represent craft distillers’ positions on key policy issues at the federal, state and local level as well as to help guide DISCUS’ craft distiller-focused programming and benefits. Craft Advisory Council members are nominated by their peer DISCUS Craft Members, and the Craft Advisory Council votes on who will represent them as Chair for a two year term. The Chair also represents craft distillers on the DISCUS Board of Directors.
