Now, joining us this week on Game Over Beer is Kimberley Owen, AKA Craft Beer Pin Up

A little bit about Kimberley in her own words:

She has hair like she-ra but her super-power is – she helps people and brands tell their stories.

She wears many superhero hats: one is....Content strategist for food & drink brands – cultivating a community of over 3 million fans.

Secondly she’s a volunteer TEDx organiser – so far their talks have racked up over 9.5 million views in little old Leamington Spa.

Thirdly she’s a mega beer fan turned content creator spreading the word about the awesomeness of beer, driving the conversation on her travels and also fighting craft beer baddies to make the industry a better place.

We talk about nostalgia, how Kimberley fan girls over gaming legends at events and a certain game that -when we think about it - we probably never got past level 2 when we were younger!

Now, joining us this week on Game Over Beer is Ben Nother.

He is an Architect with a young family by day and a gamer / craft beer wanker (his words) by night .

He started getting more into beer around 6 years ago which led to starting the Tanked Up podcast, all about beer and video games, and then running outoflives.net a hobbyist entertainment website.
We talk about a game we loved to play with our mates while pre-drinking at uni, a series of beers that defined a moment for us both in the UK craft beer scene, and a game that - had I started playing this franchise - I would have definitely had to re-do my 2nd year like one of my friends did because of playing this game.
