About the Founder

Joanne Mumbey

Joanne is a Certified Cicerone® and Culinary Dietitian Passionate About Curating Unique Beer & Food Pairing Experiences.

Originally from Uganda, Joanne’s exposure to diverse international cuisines, due to her parents' global work, sparked her curiosity and love for food. This led her to pursue Culinary School at Johnson & Wales University, where she developed a passion for craft beer.

Joanne noticed that most beer and food pairings focused primarily on European cuisine. In response, she created BeyLoved Pairings to celebrate diverse flavors that are often overlooked in traditional beer pairing.

"Joanne's expertise in beer, keen eye for detail, and stunning decor combine to craft an unforgettable dining experience that captivates all the senses and leaves a lasting impression!"
Todd DiMatteo, Owner & Head Brewer, Good Word Brewing & Public House

“At Good Word we have been hosting beer dinners for our private guests for close to a decade; doing about 9 each year. They are always fun. When I had the opportunity to work with BeyLoved Pairings to elevate them I jumped at the chance. Joanne made the evening more inviting, more intimate, and truly more memorable for our guests, and we’re looking forward to working with her again.”
Kati Barnes

“BeyLoved Pairings put on an extraordinary event that was well organized, interactive and eye-opening! This was truly a divine experience that gave me an immense appreciation for food and beer pairings. I cannot wait for the next one!"
George Albury

"Each event has been amazing in ways that introduce us to cuisines we have never experienced along with the best beer styles to enhance the flavors of both the beer and the food. Joanne’s ability to coordinate with the chefs in the area to then come up with a theme gives them the exposure and the ability to create the magic. She then uses her skills as a Cicerone to find local beers to pair with these fresh cuisines, making it an unforgettable experience for the attendees at these events."
