Aldi wants official beer taster to check out new range of ales, lager and cider

Supermarket chain Aldi is launching a nationwide hunt for an official beer taster to review its new range of beers, lagers and ciders. The product portfolio is launched on September 15 and the successful applicant will receive a selection of beers which will need to be tested and reviewed.

The unique job will require the taster to have a passion for beer and pints of enthusiasm, as they will be asked for feedback on the whole range. From smooth craft ales to refreshing IPAs, Aldi’s official beer taster will receive 10 different products to review.

The opportunity comes as Aldi welcomes its refreshing new range of beers this coming September, including top tipples such as Festbier and Rheinbacher Pilsner, with prices starting from just £1.09.

To be in with a chance of landing the role, all budding beer tasters need to send an email explaining why they think they should be chosen for the role - as well as outlining what their favourite beer is and why. Julie Ashfield, managing director of buying at Aldi UK, said: "We’re looking for someone with passion and excitement when it comes to craft ale, but who can honestly review our range and provide suggestions as to how we might improve it for next year. For beer lovers, this is the ultimate opportunity. Best of luck to all applicants.”

To apply for the Official Beer Taster role, shoppers simply need to send an email to Aldibeertaster@clarioncomms.co.uk with the following details:

  • Full name
  • Proof of age (copy of passport or driving license)
  • Social media handles (If applicable)
  • 150-word explanation as to why they should be chosen for role
  • Favourite beer and why

Entries are open until Friday August 29, with the chosen winner selected by Friday September 2 with samples to follow for review.
