Ronda Liu

International Beer Judge and Beer Sommelier

I am an international beer judge and beer sommelier with a rich history in the craft beer industry. I honed my expertise while working at Young Master Brewery in Hong Kong and Trillium Brewing in the U.S. As a Certified Cicerone and BJCP-certified beer judge, I have judged at numerous international beer contests like the World Beer Cup, International Beer Cup, Korea Internationa Beer Award, and the Brazilian Beer Contest. My love for beer extends beyond my professional accomplishments. It's a personal passion deeply rooted in the belief that beer has the unique ability to bring people together.

Judges

Meet our judges

The China Beer Competition boasts of having the most highly qualified and trained panel of Beer buyers and Beer experts who are based in mainland China.

As the mission and philosophy of the China Beer Competition is to award Beers by quality, value and package for the China market, all our judges are from mainland China who understands the Chinese palate.

The goal, quite simply, is to gain cross-industry recognition for Beers that Chinese consumers actually want to drink.
