You will realize early in your studies for Certified Beer Server exam that it takes quite a bit of work to look at the syllabus, dig through the suggested reading materials, and gleam what you’d need for the exam. This would be much easier if the materials were collected together in one place and you could just read through it.

The Cicerone® Certification Program has a study guide for sale, but it’s like 200 bucks! It does include the price of the exam, but if you’re already paying for the exam why pay so much extra for the study guide!

So I dug through the material on the Cicerone website and I collected the recommended materials for the exam. Then I scoured through them, figured out what I would need just to study for the exam, and I put it all together into my study notes.

I took me way too long to do that. Maybe I shouldn’t have taken on the whole Beer Exam School website thing along with studying to pass the Certified Beer Server exam. But hey, you get the benefit of using all of my study notes!

I bought the books, I dug through the materials, I wrote it all up in an easy format, and I shared my flashcards, too.

Now it’s all in one place, easy for you to learn.

Study along with me and we’ll pass this exam together!

What others are saying

I passed the CBS on my first try! The wording on at least one was tricky but thanks to your classes I passed!

Phil Davey, sales director; Cheboygan Brewing Company; Cheboygan, Michigan:

I have always believed in the “give it your best” attitude no matter what the endeavor. Your notes are very well constructed and well thought out and I appreciate you offering them. I am having all my reps take the exam and have provided them with your notes and cards as well.

Bay Fannin, bartender:

Helped a good deal, and your blog was a huge resource for me in studying for the Cicerone (I passed a couple months ago and started a job bartending). Already passed the word on to my co-workers, they’ve been checking out the blog too.

Christopher Sullivan; Newton, Massachusetts:

I found Beer Exam School to be a great resource in helping me prepare for the online exam. All of what was covered in section one was asked in some shape, way or form. Beer styles was a large part of the exam and was the hardest part of the exam for sure. Even after passing the test I am reviewing your site to keep me fresh.

Hannah Song, Korea:

Thanks! It’s not easy to get some study material in my country, but i’m lucky to get to know Beer Exam School for studying. I just started to study for the exam, the Certified Beer Server with your free flashcard. I haven’t read or study with other books yet, so your flashcard is my first stage to get the certification. It will be very helpful for me. Thanks
