Martin Dixon has spent the past five years collating and reviewing alcohol-free beers from around the world, building connections between brewers, drinkers and innovators. His aim has been to inspire creativity and accelerate the development of better AF beers by highlighting excellence and sharing trends from across the globe.

Proudly British and French, Martin describes himself as an investor, entrepreneur and evangelist for the positive impact that alcohol-free drinks can have on individuals and society. He has written widely on the subject and is a member of both the British and American Guilds of Beer Writers. At this year’s WAFA judging, he’s looking forward to discovering the latest expressions of creativity and craftsmanship in the AF beer world.

When the sun is shining, Martin can usually be found outdoors, camera in hand, photographing butterflies - a long-standing passion that reflects his love of detail and appreciation of nature.
