Lead Brewer – Joel Heffernan

Time to introduce Joel, our lead brewer. Joel is from Australia and spent many years in hospitality before entering the craft beer industry. He thinks it is challenging to create unique craft beer with new ingredients and was excited to work for a company that makes beers that don’t taste like beers!

Working at a brewery is physically demanding, but Joel enjoys working with his fun and creative colleagues at Carbon, and with the bonus that the product contains alcohol. Besides work, his greatest achievements are the modular synthesizers, hiking, and the time away from civilization with his wife and dog.

His favourite beer? Probably a pint of draught Stone and Wood Pacific Ale, in the Australian sun, looking at the beach. It is a very nostalgic memory that makes him homesick.

今次我哋有嚟自澳洲嘅Joel，喺進入精釀啤酒行業前有豐富嘅餐旅業經驗。佢認為用創新嘅原料去做啤酒係一件有挑戰性嘅事，對酒廠出產一啲味道不似傳統嘅啤酒感到興奮！

喺酒廠工作，係一件汗水淋灕嘅體力活。不過Joel更加享受呢個創意產業，不但圍繞住無數嘅啤酒仲有趣嘅同伴添！佢喺假日嘅時間會去行山、同家人享受遠離都市嘅時光。

Joel最鍾意嘅啤酒係 Stone and Wood Pacific Ale，喺澳洲嘅陽光下凝望海灘，係一種家嘅思念。
