72nd ASBC meeting in Tucson – „What makes Tucson so hot?”
The 72nd annual meeting of the American Society of Brewing Chemists (ASBC) took place from the 6th to the 10th of June, 2009 in the desert of Arizona, in Tucson to be exact. According to Cindy-Lou Dull (AB-Inbev), the meaning of this year’s slogan, chosen by the organizers, was self-explanatory: an allusion to the traditionally warm temperatures typical of the region, which shares a border with Mexico, as well as to the diverse and exciting program schedule of this year’s meeting.
