At the foundation of the new structure is General Membership, now available free, opening the door for more professionals to connect with ADI, access select educational resources, participate in webinars, and engage with the broader craft spirits community. One exciting new benefit of the free membership is conference and competition discounts. General membership also includes a complimentary one-year subscription to Imbibe Magazine.

For members seeking expanded benefits, Premium Membership offers enhanced access to education and events, including conference and competition discounts, exclusive programming credits, premium webinars, supplier specials, and a complimentary subscription to ADI's Distiller magazine, as well as a one-year subscription to Imbibe Magazine. Designed for active distillers, Premium Membership delivers tangible savings, especially for those who attend ADI's annual conference.

ADI still offers the Supplier Membership, tailored specifically for businesses that support the craft spirits ecosystem.
