CICERONE RESOURCES

As I was going through the different levels of the Cicerone Certification Program I put together lots of notes, drawings and timelines. It was not meant to be shared and I must say it was a bit messy but I’ve been thinking for some time that these could be helpful resources for other people.

So here we are! I’ll keep adding more as I polish my notes! Let me know what you think!

Note: Specifications from the BJCP are reviewed now and then so it might be a good idea to crosscheck and make any necessary adjustment! The file is editable anyway!

Hot topic! NA beer is everywhere.
Time to put together a decent infographic showing the different options for brewers to produce one. Some options need solid investments some don’t. Some can deliver 0.0% some don’t!
I know it’s very small but you should be able to zoom in quite easily.
I’ll put a HD version on my website asap if you want to use it.
If you like this please follow, comment and share to your network 👍as this really motivates my efforts to spread beer knowledge and develop free content.

A simple visual expression of what a pumpkin beer

A simple visual expression of what a pumpkin beer is about! I first really hated the idea of so many spices in beer but over the tears I have found some really well balanced examples and I always have a few during the season! Tonight is the night! Never say never. Enjoy the way you want 🎃💥

If every beer menu could be that simple! Sure we would attract more consumers and deliver much more satisfaction.

Most beer descriptions are very texty, sometime poetic but overall miss the point: explain what it looks and tastes like. The mismatch between what is being sold and what consumers do experience can be dramatic and very frustrating!

Cheers to this impactful visual from @hopculturemag

If you’ve been to the Oktoberfest you know that except if you have a reservation it’s first in first served. You must have a table to order beers. So it’s simple, you get a table and you stay for the day 😂. Doors are opening at 9am.
I must say it’s easy to arrive nice and fresh early on day 1. Day 2 is a very different effort 😂.

See this awesome footage from @verena.angermeier 💥

So you know the beer you’ll find in your mass at the Oktoberfest may look like your everyday pilsner…well it’s not. Festbier is definitely a notch bigger (and not just the glass!)
Märzen are also bigger but let’s say that the color would make it more clear it’s different.
Enjoy!

I don’t know if it’s inflation or correction or if it compensates for the 100k+ mass stolen every year… but the price of a beer mass (~1 liter) is becoming serious!
Let’s be positive, it’s tax included and you can go a long way with a couple of them 😅

Let’s call it a White Crimson? I think beer blending is underrated (and I know a few products in the market which are pure blends!)
Here is a Belgian White with a bit of bourbon, oaky, woody notes and crystal malt. Just like this my @allagashbrewing White is dressed for fall with a little extra kick. Bring a friend you want to share this with!

‘Tis the season again!

For Americans it goes without saying that “Pumpkin” means “Pumpkin Spices” made of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg… it’s everywhere from Starbucks Late to shower gels and candles…

For European this typical spice is very much unknown (and so is the pumpkin pie). The expectation is really to taste like a pumpkin (which really is not a signature of its own) and that can be quite a disappointment.

Some pumpkin beers are actually produced with proper pumpkin concentrate. It can’t really be the fresh pumpkin because these beers are brewed now in June or July to hit the market in August…way before any of them are ripe 😅.

My favorite so far has been @tworoadsbrewing rum barrel aged pumpkin beer (Roadsmary Baby).

Happy season ya’ll!

“Masskrugstemmen” is a Bavarian sport; the nam

“Masskrugstemmen” is a Bavarian sport; the name translates loosely into the lifting of a liter mug of beer. The “Masskrug”, a 1-liter Stein, is to be held with one arm, completely stretched out and parallel to the floor – the goal is simple: to hold the Stein up as long as possible. It’s a balance between the right technique and strength. The full 1-liter “Mass” weighs about 5 lbs.!
Beer=Sport.
The only frustration is that the better you are the more likely your beer will be warm 😅.

One of the most practical aspect of Oktoberfest is that we all drink the same beer. Can you imagine someone asking for the beer list?
The maß weight about 2.3kg a piece (when full obviously).
