A cicerone is a knowledgeable guide, particularly in the context of beer and brewing. The term originates from the Latin word for a guide or expert, similar to a sommelier for wine. Cicerones are trained to understand beer styles, flavors, brewing processes, and food pairings. They may help customers choose beers in bars or restaurants, educate others about beer, and promote craft brewing. The Cicerone Certification Program offers different levels of certification, verifying a person's expertise in beer, making them a valuable resource for anyone looking to enhance their beer experience.
