Got what it takes to be Two Birds' next Melbourne Craft Beer Ambassador?
If you're a craft beer drinker that frequents Melbourne's North and CBD haunts, chances are you've come across Alice Boyd. As the Birds farewell their Craft Beer Ambassador and begin the search for the newest face of the flock, Alice shares some insight on her time with Two Birds...
How did you get into craft beer and what drew you to Two Birds?
I moved to Vancouver in 2015 and saw how much of a booming industry it was with lots of career opportunities, and I loved the small community feel of it all. I started working in a brewery tasting room and then moved into sales.
I was drawn to Two Birds because I loved Taco (and the rest of the beers!) and because a female owned brewery was right up my alley. I found the Two Birds story to be very inspiring and I have a huge amount of respect for Jayne and Danielle. It's my dream job!
What do you love most about your job repping for Two Birds?
The beer and the people. I absolutely love the beers that our brewers produce, and I get to meet and work with a huge range of people that are doing what they love.
Being surrounded by a great team, and working with so many passionate people in the industry makes me feel very lucky.
You’ve been with Two Birds for nearly three years, what achievements are you most proud of?
I have loved forming partnerships with so many inspiring and inclusive groups, such as female fronted music events and events in the LGBTQ+ space. And of course, there’s nothing like getting a big sale over the line after working at it for months or even years.
Is it true you're getting a Two Birds Double Bantam tattoo?
Ha! If Jayne brews the beer again, I'll commit!
