Joanne has been drinking beer since she was handed a Sam Adams Boston lager and realised that not all beer was yellow and fizzy. She was travelling the world while working on cruise ships at the time and tried every beer she could get her hands on. When she came home she decided she wanted to learn more about where the aromas and flavours in her favourite beers came from. During lockdown in the UK in 2020 she set herself the challenge to pass the Cicerone Certified Beer Server exam to earn a qualification in beer, just for fun!

We recommend different coffee beer styles for you to try and hit you with the fun coffee and beer facts!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!
We are so honoured to be talking to Dr J Nikol Jackson-Beckham from the Brewers Association. Not only was she their first Diversity Ambassador, she now leads the Brewers Association's Diversity, Equity & Inclusion department as the association's Equity & Inclusion Partner. She also runs Crafted for All LLC and is an advocate for inclusion in the beer community and industry. Her insights certainly opened our eyes!
Dr J gives us actionable tips on how we can all be inclusive not only in beer but throughout our lives. This was such an important conversation, and we hope that you get as much out of it as we did.
We can’t wait to have a drink with Dr J in real life one day!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!
In our first episode of 2022 we are lucky enough to chat with Paul from Orbit Beers. He has a very interesting brewing background which has resulted in beers that are creative and delicious!
We talk about where Paul gets his ideas from, how music is at the core of Orbit Beers and how you can be a DJ for a night (or at least 20 mins!) at the Orbit taproom. Our favourite part was finding out how Orbit got it’s name!
We tried Orbit’s Sazerac Sour and Blackberry Gose – check out their webshop now to find these and more delightful offerings!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!
Well, here we are again at the end of another year. It’s been better than 2020, that’s for sure. Tori and Jo reflect on the things they have achieved this past 12 months and look at what is to come in 2022. There was a lot to be thankful for – including good beer, good people and of course you our fantastic listeners for coming along for the ride!
We do a quick review of Christmas beers, see if we managed to complete our 2021 beer goals (spoiler – we didn’t!) and set some new goals for 2022. But what do you want to see from A Woman’s Brew: The Podcast in 2022? Send us an email with your thoughts and wishes to lovebeerlearning@gmail.comand we will see if we cn make them come true!
Cheers to a Happy New Year – see you in 2022!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!
We’re not sommeliers, but let’s talk barley wine. The nights are drawing in and we need big beers to sip by the fire (even if it’s playing on YouTube). We look at the history of barley wines and compare English and American styles. We also talk about what constitutes a wheat wine. So go grab yourself some big beers for the holiday season and let us know what your favourite is over on Instagram.
