The beer sommelier is a trained expert for the cultural beverage beer.
Beer Sommeliers are experts at the highest level in all matters related to beer culture: beer sensory analysis, the background of beer styles, and the presentation of beer in gastronomy. They stand for diversity, tradition, and innovation.
Beer sommeliers are comparable to gallery owners, who explain the art of brewers to consumers. Their goal is to serve as a bridge between the producer and the consumer, conveying the sensory experience of beer.
The Association of Certified Beer Sommeliers acts as the central body and a partner in their marketing efforts. It holds the responsibility for the professional development of its members and ensures adherence to the ethical principles of the profession.

In the service he is the advisory person for the colleagues and the guests, when it comes to the perfect presentation and presentation of the beer specialties offered.
