How did you get into the beer industry? Why does beer matter to you?

My love of beer led me into my profession 20 years ago! I enjoy my work every day because beer is the best drink in the world! Beer is so complex and brings people together.

Why do you judge at the World Beer Cup? What does judging at the World Beer Cup mean to you?

Because the World Beer Cup is the Olympic Games of brewing! It is by far the best beer competition, incredibly well organized, and all the tasters are full professionals and fully committed! The nice thing is that you always meet new people and you can have a great chat with them! I can only recommend every brewery to send their beers to the World Beer Cup.
