Who We Are
Meet the beer nerds behind Science Made Beerable Inc.
Kelsey Picard
Co-president
Kelsey is a beer obsessed plant scientist whose love of beer extends beyond just drinking it!
From the sexual biology of hop plants, to the sugar chemistry changes in a germinating barley grain, plant science plays a huge role in the production of beer. Kelsey enjoys a fruity sour or a resinous IPA and is fascinated by the complex flavours that can be produced with just four ingredients.
Matthew Fielding
Co-president
Matt is a lecturer in fermentation science at UTAS and a massive beer nerd. When he's not in the Tasmanian wilderness behind a pair of binoculars, he's likely got a hopped-up craft beer in his hands. His interest in brewing science started after he plunged into the world of home-brewing, which uncovered the incredible complexity behind that delicious liquid we call beer.
Science Made Beerable Inc. is a not-for-profit which endeavors to share the fascinating world of beer science with beer lovers.
