20: Food Pairing with Mirella Amato

Christina and Erica had the joy of chatting with Mirella Amato, a Master Cicerone, National Level BJCP Judge, and Doemens Bier Sommelier based in Canada. Mirella is a craft beer and sensory consultant and has written the book “Beerology: Everything You Need to Know to Enjoy Beer…Even More”. Her most recent endeavour is teaching an online course on how to pair beer with food. Some topics that came up included whether we are born with sensory abilities or if we can learn them, how having COVID-19 might impact our aroma and taste, and what resources a budding beer enthusiast can access in order to practice their tasting skills. We’re also joining Mirella’s campaign to celebrate women in beer on St Brigid's day ;)
