This is a start-up opportunity that you can pour your passion into and imprint your style on.  In addition, we have plans for expansion to other cities, states, and possible international locations—all of which our Head Brewer will help launch and oversee.

Our Head Brewer will be responsible for all aspects of the brewing process, including brewing, fermentation, cellar work, ordering supplies, cleaning, and keeping up with state and federal recording and reporting requirements.  

Requirements:
•    Minimum 3 years brewing experience
•    Strong experience and comfort developing big beers and especially west-coast style IPAs

This is a great opportunity to put your personal mark on a brewery and become a part equity owner in future expansions.  This position offers a competitive salary, benefits, an easy cost of living, and potential equity stake in future expansion.  Recipe development to begin soon.
