Anthony Gladman, Beer Sommelier

Hi, I’m Anthony. I’m a Beer Sommelier. I trained at the Beer and Cider Academy, which is part of the Institute of Brewing and Distilling.

I run tutored tastings, beer and food pairing events, and training workshops. I’m also a freelance writer specialising in beer, food and travel. I’m a member of the British Guild of Beer Writer and a World Beer Awards judge.

Before moving into beer I worked in book publishing for 20 years.

Some more stuff

• I’ve written for Winerist and BeerBods
• I’ve organised tasting sessions and off-flavour training workshops
• I was the Tryanuary Local Champion for South London in 2018
