Since osx 10.13 symlinks for python are no longer saved in /usr/local/bin. brew info python shows:

Python has been installed as
  /usr/local/bin/python3

Unversioned symlinks `python`, `python-config`, `pip` etc. pointing to
`python3`, `python3-config`, `pip3` etc., respectively, have been installed into
  /usr/local/opt/python/libexec/bin

Therefore to make the brew installed python 3 standard for the system the path needs to point there.

Also brew install python now installs 3.7.1 as default
