Cicerone Certification Program Official Website

In the wine world, the word "sommelier" designates those with proven expertise in selecting, acquiring and serving fine wine. Lately some beer servers have adopted the title "beer sommelier" to tie into the credibility of the wine world. But anyone can call themselves a beer sommelier regardless of knowledge or experience. And while some will be highly skilled, the only way to demonstrate that objectively is through independent testing of knowledge and tasting ability. The Cicerone Certification Program offers that independent assessment and certification so that industry professionals–as well as consumers–can be sure of the knowledge and skills possessed by current and prospective beer servers.

In 2004, Trumer Brauerei opened a brewery in Berkeley, California, to reproduce for the American market the Trumer Pils it has brewed for 400 years in Austria. Trumer Pils is thus now widely available in the San Francisco Bay Area as well as Austria. Trumer Pils results from a partnership of two family-owned companies: Privatbrauerei Josef Sigl and The Gambrinus Company owned by Carlos Alvarez. Trumer Pils ships all ingredients from Austria to its Berkeley brewery, using all "traditional" ingredients but North American water from the high Sierra.

Since 2004 Trumer Pils Berkeley has expanded its distribution to Seattle, Portland, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, San Diego and Phoenix metropolitan areas.

In April, 2008 Trumer Pils won the Gold medal at the World Beer Cup for Best German-style pilsner. An accomplishment for Trumer Pils following the Gold medal win at the last World Beer Cup competition in 2006. Winners were selected by an international panel of 129 beer experts from 22 countries judging 2,930 entries from 646 breweries in 58 countries.
