Sampling beer at the Easter Show

Simon Beverage is a Beer Sommelier for the Redoak Brewery, in Sydney. His job is to understand the flavours and styles of certain beers, and how it matches to various foods.
SkillsOne talks to Simon at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, as he advises people of the best beer to match with various food groups, the beer history and context. 

About the Redoak Boutique Beer Cafe: 

The Redoak Boutique Beer Café is wholly Australian owned, developed and operated by sibling founders Janet and David Hollyoak. Its hand-crafted locally brewed beers are already proving popular with Sydney’s premium beer lovers and visitors alike. Australia’s most awarded boutique beer café opened its doors in Sydney in mid 2004 and serves a range of boutique premium beers accompanied by a menu of exquisite cuisine.

Redoak Brewery has had outstanding successes at the 2004 -2007 Australian International Beer Awards and has been Australia's most awarded brewery for the third consecutive year in 2007. The Redoak Boutique Beer Café is wholly Australian owned, developed and operated by sibling founders Janet and David Hollyoak.

David started brewing beer at the age of 14 when he created his first ginger beer. He developed a passion for brewing beer in his teens and always dreamed of brewing a range of premium beers for the Australian market. Over the years he developed his own unique methods of brewing specialty beers and has used these, along with some more traditional methods, to create the range available in the Redoak Boutique Beer Café.
