MonkTalks - technology, society, beer

A fan site dedicated to all the speakers and staff of Monktoberfest by Redmonk.


Monktoberfest 2016 went all in on beer - in the sessions! Alongside the beer business stories there were also discussions about open source, software traditions, and social media and families.
