"Beer is just a conversation" and what a conversation we had with Ian Kingham, That Beer Bloke on this Episode.

Ian is a Judge but there are no gowns to be seen. He's an International Beer Judge (quite possibly the best job in the world). He's also a consultant, brewer, writer and reviewer all in his spare time. The Lifestyle Pirates tap into his knowledge for some beer tasting notes, background on beer tasting and how he made the draft for the role.
