2024 Dutch Cup of Beer Sommeliers Runner-up!

Very much to my surprise, I made it to the finale yesterday in the Dutch Cup of Beer Sommeliers. And it didn’t stop there, because after one scary, but exciting, crazy and fun finale I came in second!

One of the things that can be a part of being an international biersommelier is being asked to be a judge in a beer competition. I was asked again to judge in the Dutch Beer Challenge of 2021 and of course I said yes!

If you think being a biersommelier is all about trying the newest and best beers and drinking all kind of nice stuff, think again … Training for becoming a biersommelier puts beer and flavours in a whole new perspective, and unfortunately not all is well in paradise.
