A qualified beer cicerone, Brian Fitzgerald is putting his well-developed palate and unique set of skills to work for craft brewers across Australia, who let him use their equipment in return.
Western Australia's Brian Fitzgerald can detect differences in the flavour ratios of hops, yeast and barley in a glass of beer by taste alone.
Known as the "gypsy brewer", Mr Fitzgerald has become a gun-for-hire for brewers across Australia, helping them develop flavours and products in exchange for using their equipment to make his own beer. "Often a big part of the cicerone program is understanding those styles, and to be able to help people and guide them through," Mr Fitzgerald said.
