Briony Liebich Bio:

I’m a sensory analyst and an expert taster. I’ve got 17 years’ experience in the beer, wine and food industries (and before you ask, yes it does mean I get paid to taste beer!).

I've worked with some of Australian's best known and loved food, beer and wine brands. My experience includes:

I encourage everyone to be more mindful whenever eating and drinking. Paying attention is how we learn to describe flavours, recognise quality aspects and really appreciate what's in a glass or on a plate. I enjoy sharing my passion for sensory analysis and training others to improve their tasting ability whether they are general consumers or industry professionals.
