  • Summary

  • Welcome to A Woman’s Brew – The Podcast, where women talk about beer!

    A Woman’s Brew is two beer loving women on a mission to get more people drinking and talking about great beer. Joanne & Tori want to talk you through beer styles, breweries we love, beer tasting tips, beer traditions and more from the world of craft beer.

    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! She passed with 97% and began to build her beer school Love Beer Learning to support other women to discover beer, build their confidence in beer tasting and amplify their voices in the beer community. She is now a Certified Cicerone and has made the leap to work in beer full time.

    Though most people don't believe it, Tori was born and raised near Boston in the US but has been living in the UK since 2013. When she first moved here, she stuck to ciders, Brewdog, and Brewdog guest beers and was a pretty big Brewdog fangirl. Within the last 2 years she started to branch out as she saw the scene grow to a point that she couldn’t miss out on it any longer. She says that since the beginning of 2020, she’s really belly flopped off the deep end into craft beer and hit a level she never thought she would where she now considers this her hobby. She loves taking photos in her spare time and when she travels, so already had a few Instagram accounts on the go, which is why she chose Instagram as the platform to start giving her thoughts on the beers she was trying. She refers to these as her “opinions nobody asked for” and it was just a way for her to pass time during lockdown while dusting off her old, rusty writing skills from many moons ago when she was a journalism student. She met Joanne in a Facebook beer group and after seeing her pass the CBS exam, approached her to create this podcast, where women teach women about beer!

    The podcast will be with you every week with our thoughts and views on the world’s favourite beverage. Find us on your favourite podcasting platforms and don't forget to subscribe.

    202 - Introducing the Topics Jar!
    Jul 22 2024

    This week we are beating the burnout and having a chat about our upcoming plans and topics picked by you, the listener!

    We introduce our topics jar – we’ll pick random questions from the jar and attempt to answer them. This is an ask us anything opportunity – and apparently not just about beer! Would you rather have a wifi brain or a time traveling finger? Would you rather only order pints or always have a flight of 10 beers? How do you feel about beer haul photos and why do they have to be on your stairs?!

    Tori and Jo share their upcoming plans and give some top travel tips to help you on your summer beer travels too!

    Have you got a question for the topics jar? Share it will us!

    201 - Quarter 2 Review
    Jul 15 2024

    Said in very British voice: ‘where has that time gone?!’ We are already half way through the year and checking in on our 2024 beer goals.

    We both think we’ve done alright so far, Tori is working on hard mode (obvs) while Jo is reviewing and refining her goals – mid year is the best time for this! We also look at how far we’ve got with our Drink Harder challenge and, once again, debate what constitutes a dive bar!

    Tori lets us in on her data collection for the year so far and Jo shares the beginnings of her beer journal. We’ll also see which were the top episodes of the quarter.

    How are your beer goals going? And where is your fave dive bar? Let us know!
