My name is Judd Smith and I’m a tired dad/husband that finds time every now and then to write about booze. I’m started my beverage career in Shreveport, LA working with some of the best people the service industry has to offer. While there, I tried to learn everything I could about wine, spirits, cocktails, beer, and service. Since June of 2018, I transitioned to On-Premise(Restaurants/Bars) Sales in Memphis, TN where I currently live with family.
You can find more of my boozy content in SB Magazine every month under the Sip On This column. As of this year, I am official with a WSET II certification and working on a few others. Everything posted on or associated with Beard and Barrel is completely my opinion. I don’t know everything but I definitely try to.
