Virtual Beer Tasting

Your Host

You will be assigned one of our acclaimed creator hosts to lead your experience.

He started Your Beer Friend with his wife Cindy (both of them are Certified Cicerones®) after running a successful brewery tour in Los Angeles since 2012. As a Certified Cicerone®, Hal is eager to chat all things beer including brewery business models, food pairings and why glassware matters. He might even share why you should think twice about freezing your beer mug.
