Thrilled to have been invited to be on the judging panel at the International Beer Challenge (@intbeerchal) yesterday! Krishan (@ItsMrKrish) and Tim (@polymathtim) spent a glorious day at The Oval, between them, evaluating 18 flights of diverse beer with many esteemed peers from across the industry. Being surrounded by so many brilliant beer minds – a mix of familiar faces and new connections – was genuinely a privilege. It pushed us to test our palates and sharpen our analytical skills, and learning from seasoned professionals in that environment is always incredibly insightful. A big thank you to Jeff Evans, the IBC team for a well organised day and to all the judges for making it a fantastic experience. P.S. Was greeted by Ozzy at the beginning & end of the journey. #IBC2025🍻
