 Formed 70 years ago in 1938, the Oklahoma Malt Beverage Association (OMBA) is the state organization for licensed independent beer distributors in Oklahoma, the majority of which are family-owned and operated small businesses lead by second or third generation distributors.
The mission of OMBA is to represent and advocate for beer distributors, to serve as the unified voice for beer distributors on legislation and regulation, to encourage the responsible consumption of beer and to assist distributors in their business and community roles.
Everyday, distributors bring our products to the Oklahoma consumer -- products of the highest quality, tremendous selection, outstanding service and at unbelievably low prices.
The economic impact of Oklahoma’s beer distributors is very real. Employment, payroll, property taxes, income taxes, excise taxes, reinvestment back into the state and local communities are all very significant. But most of all, the Oklahoma Malt Beverage Association is a group of small businessmen and businesswomen trying to make a living – no different than any other small business today. We are proud of our heritage, our state and local communities, and our products we sell.

Oklahoma Malt Beverage Association Launches Holiday Public Service Ad Campaign
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, December 8, 2009 - The Oklahoma Malt Beverage Association (OMBA) announced today it has launched the first in a series of public service advertisements urging Oklahomans to be responsible when they consume alcohol over the holidays. The ads, currently running on radio stations statewide, specifically request that Oklahomans designate a driver if they are drinking and also serve to remind young Oklahomans that it’s illegal to consume alcohol if under age 21. OMBA intends to extend the public service campaign in 2010, aiming its efforts at sports fans, prom goers and graduating students and lake/boat enthusiasts.
