Beer Scholar
Hey there, beer geeks! I'm Chris Cohen, the guy behind Beer Scholar. My channel is all about beer smarts, so subscribe if you want to up your beer game! You can expect vids about how to taste and describe beer, brewing know how, running a top craft beer bar, passing the Cicerone exams, beer soaked travel vids, and discussions with industry insiders and high level Cicerones.
I'm a former attorney turned beer pro. I'm an Advanced Cicerone, National BJCP Judge, founding partner of a top beer bar in San Francisco called Old Devil Moon, co-founder of the San Francisco Homebrewers Guild, and the author of the Beer Scholar Study Guides for the Cicerone Exams. I've been training folks to pass the Cicerone exams since 2014!
I'm currently based in San Francisco, California. I'm always down to connect or answer your questions, feel free to reach out on social media. If you'd like to contact me for business purposes, you can reach me at [email protected]. Cheers y'all!
