Who We Are
Smarter Drinker was founded by Sommelier Ian Meyer in 2023 with one big goal; make MORE beverages MORE fun for MORE people!
We believe that a beverage experience is enriched through those you share it with, the mindset you approach it with, and the context of what you are drinking.
This means finding happy, healthy, ways to share the drinks we love with those we care about
We aim to always be learning—the desire to know more is a key component of growth, so we aim to support that with pure knowledge and resources for the curious
