Beer 101
Learn the basics of beer, from the start. This course is meant to skim the surface, and is a great precursor to going much deeper into beer knowledge. This course will cover and is intended to help prepare for the Cicerone Certified Beer Server exam.
Staff Training
How well versed is your staff? Can they describe that new beer so every customer wants to try it? Can they spot service issues before the beer makes it to the table? We can help you get there. This course is similar to the Beer 101 class, but can be tailored to your specific setting and beer list.

This is taught through a series of classes, and pricing will reflect the need for multiple bookings.
