What kind of beer does Curt Cignetti drink? CBS Sports investigates

Our Summary

Indiana football coach Curt Cignetti was recently the subject of a light-hearted investigation into his beer preferences following a viral moment after the Peach Bowl. While Cignetti initially mentioned preferring to "crack open a beer" after games, the specifics of his choice remained unclear. Coaches and staff members close to Cignetti offered varying insights, suggesting options from Michelob Ultra to a double IPA. Ultimately, Cignetti confirmed his post-game beverage of choice was "Hoosier beer," specifically a Hoosier Gameday Lager from Upland Brewing. This beer is notable for being the first Indiana University athletics-branded beer. Cignetti's preference for a single beer highlights a modest celebratory ritual after significant victories.
