Organiser

AleHunters
I am a certified Beer Sommelier, Certified Cicerone® and World Beer Awards Judge, and have been conducting beer tours and tastings for many years. Over the years I have amassed a huge amount of knowledge of the City's pubs, craft breweries and taprooms, and built up a network of contacts with some of the key people involved in London's vibrant beer culture. I have also amassed an intensive knowledge of the best of Belgium's breweries and beer festivals. I visit Belgium frequently, developing contacts within the industry to ensure that my guests enjoy the best Belgium beer experiences possible. In a previous life, I was a member of the Quality team at Fuller’s, London’s oldest brewery. I also delivered brewery tours at its Griffin Brewery in Chiswick, welcoming visitors from the UK and overseas. I have hosted tutored beer tastings for many years, and have a thorough knowledge of beer – from grain to glass. I look forward to sharing my knowledge, enthusiasm and experience with you.
