This week we are chatting to Mirella Amato – the most qualified beer judge in Canada!  Mirella not only has a wealth of knowledge from her experience in the beer industry and a multitude of qualifications, she has also literally written the book on it! We chat to Mirella about her journey in beer so far and her work with the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) in creating their new beer qualifications.  She gives us her tips for getting into beer judging and where to start with beer education – but remember!  We all come to the table with our own tasting experience and palate.  Mirella has also written a book about beer and has an online beer and food pairing course you should check out! And then we get into Sake – it’s a fun ride of an episode! Are you as inspired as us to get some more beer education?! Find out more about Mirella on her website here:https://beerology.ca/ Find Mirella’s book here:https://beerology.ca/the-book/ Find her beer & food pairing course here:https://beerology.ca/mastering-beer-food/ Find where to study with WSET here:https://www.wsetglobal.com/where-to-study Get in Touch:Website: https://awomansbrewpod.beer/Email: [email protected]Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/awomansbrew/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AWomansBrewTori: @adventures_in_hoptimismJoanne: @lovebeerlearningJo’s website: http://www.lovebeerlearning.co.ukSupport us: https://ko-fi.com/awomansbrew Join our 2025 drinking challenge here Subscribe:PodbeaniTunesSpotifyTuneIn Watch:YouTube Music: Higher Up by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
