A podcast for lovers of wine, beer, liquor (incl. whisky, whiskey, bourbon, gin, vodka, tequila etc) and cocktails, Drinks Adventures hosts wine makers, brewing and distilling experts, sommeliers, bartenders & more.
Formerly of Bell's Brewing in Michigan, USA, and West End Brewery in Adelaide, Karli Small has a background in sensory science.
Karli began her brewing career as a lab technician at West End. She held a series of brewing roles there before relocating to the US to join Bell's, the company behind Two Hearted IPA, which was voted the best beer in America four years running.

Finishing as brewing manager at Bell's in September 2019, Karli returned to Australia and ultimately took a job in Sydney as head brewer & production manager at one of my locals, The Grifter Brewing Company.
I started by asking Karli how it was that she found her way from Michigan to Marrickville.
