Siebel Institute Draught Beer Technical Skills Course

The MillerCoors Draught Training Center, located in Golden, features an extensive range of hands-on dispense training systems, stations and equipment integrated with a multi-media presentation environment, all dedicated exclusively to educating and training beer industry personnel in draught beer dispense.

The Draught Beer Technical Skills Course blends theoretical fundamentals of dispense with “hands-on” practical application using a wide range of brand kegs. Simple mechanics, physics, fluid dynamics, chemistry, microbiology,

draught beer math and basic customer skills form the core of the curriculum.

The programme touches on issues such as:

– understanding and using the 2009 Brewers Association Draught Beer Quality Manual;

– understanding all styles and brands of beer and dispense systems;

– craft beer, import and specialty dispense;

– beer line, pressure and system cooling design and installation;

– special event and novelty dispense;

– evaluating, modifying and maintaining existing dispense systems;

– troubleshooting;

– draught business practices in the brewery-distributor-retail-allied supply chain.
