Tim Hickford

Working in pubs, bars and beer festivals throughout his time at university opened Tim Hickford's eyes to the wonderful world of beer. In subsequent  years this interest has turned into a full blown passion and a career. 

After university, Tim landed a job at Hertfordshire's Mad Squirrel Brewery in 2013. Tim was an integral part of the company and the brands development  and growth for over six years, involving himself in projects as wide as managing taprooms, running events, hosting brewery tours, and managing the breweries marketing. Tim often acted as the public face of Mad Squirrel brewery, appearing on national television, radio and print publications to talk about their beers.

In 2020 Tim started a new position as Brewery Tours and Retail Manager at BrewPoint Brewery, the new home of Wells & Co, in Bedford. “I am incredibly excited to be joining a brewery with such an extensive history at this exciting new chapter in their story” said Tim. 

A decade into his career in the beer industry and now a seasoned beer communicator, Tim has lost none of his passion for beer and helping other people discover their next favourite brew.
