TESTIMONIALS

“Jane is a natural and engaging speaker. She has an encyclopaedic knowledge of her subject and easily captures and keeps her audience’s attention. I can also vouch for her energy and enthusiasm. We worked together at a 5-day event where she was required to give the same presentation multiple times each day. She did this with ease, keeping it fresh and entertaining each time.”

Edward Fenton – Charlbury Beer Festival.

“For Norwich’s FEM.ALE Festival, we’ve been delighted to welcome Jane to speak about the history of beer and women with her extensive knowledge of these and other subjects around booze and pub culture. She is always articulate, charming and stimulates great conversation among our attendees. We’ve had nothing but positive feedback on Jane’s solo speaking, beer and food matchings and her participation on industry panels and we’re looking forward to welcoming her back to our future events. “

From history to quality, taste to quirky synergies that link beer to the wider world – it’s always a sheer pleasure! “
