Debbie Parker - Sommelier


Debbie Parker

Dr Debbie Parker, Brewing Division Sensory Manager, has become one of only 37 accredited Beer Academy Sommeliers in the world. Becoming a member of this illustrious group means Debbie is a qualified expert in beers; this encompasses everything from styles and flavours to food matching and brands - something Debbie already has a wealth of experience of.

Debbie commented on her achievement: "I am delighted to become one of only eight female Beer Academy Sommeliers in the world. This award recognises the knowledge and experience that I have gained working in brewing over the last 25 years and further enhances our credibility within the industry, in particular when running training courses or tutored tastings".

Gordon Jackson, Head of Brewing Services at Campden BRI, said: "It is very important to the company that Debbie has achieved the prestigious status of Beer Academy Sommelier. It enhances our reputation as a leading brewing research centre and improves the service that we offer to clients, for example with beer and food matching."
