BREWERY COLLECTIBLES CLUB OF AMERICA
Welcome to the home site for the Fort Wayne BCCA / NABA Three Rivers Chapter. Our objective is to promote the hobby of Breweriania Collecting through local area shows, monthly chapter meetings, and this web site.
Please like us on Facebook
Our club was originally formed in 1974, by a group of local area beer can collectors, as a non for profit chapter of the Brewery Collectibles Club of America. Membership now primarily consists of craft beer enthusiasts that collect anything and everything beer related, with a few history nerds, and home brewers mixed in. We conduct a social gathering on the third Thursday of each month, at various locations, in and around Fort Wayne. Our meetings are very casual, and open to everyone. If you are interested in collecting, brewery history, or local craft beer, please fill free to contact us.

Fort Wayne turkey Trot Show
Local can of the year Alps Brau. A limited release, event can, was produced for the 2020 Fort Wayne Brewery Collectibles show. Brewed and packaged by members of the BCCA / NABA Three Rivers Chapter, with awesome help from Mike Flaherty at GnomeTown Brewing. This is a nostalgic re-make of the Cool, Crisp, Clear, Bavarian Style “Alps Brau” that was first brewed in 1957 at the Centlivre Brewery, here in Fort Wayne. After the closing of Old Crown in 1973, Peter Hand Brewing of Chicago continued to brew Alps Brau until 1980.
