A Quick Introduction 

 

"Cicerone" is pronounced "sis-uh-rohn"

 

The Cicerone Certification Program seeks to ensure that consumers receive the best possible beer and enjoy its flavors to the greatest extent possible.  To facilitate this, those who sell and serve beer need to acquire knowledge in five areas:   

 

 

     Beer Storage, Sales and Service

     Beer Styles and Culture

     Beer Tasting and Flavors

     Brewing Ingredients and Processes

     Pairing Beer with Food 

 

To encourage participation by those with various interests and ambitions, the program offers three levels of certification beginning with the simplest and building to the most complex and demanding: 

 

     1.   Certified Beer Server

     2.   Certified Cicerone(tm)

     3.   Master Cicerone(tm)
