EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Great beer doesn't make itself so we're always looking for great people to help carry the load. If you're interested in joining a passionate, independent brewery in the exciting craft beer biz, this may be your chance!

BREWER / ASSISTANT BREWER (Posted May 17/12)

You'll be one of three people responsible for the preparation, running, cleaning and minor maintenance of the brewhouse, cellar and support equipment used to produce Garrison's award-winning natural craft beers and sodas. You'll work as needed handling raw materials, brewing (in whole or in part), transferring product, monitoring and controlling fermentation and cleaning tanks, equipment and work area. While creative at heart, you'll need to adhere to recipes and SOPs to achieve the highest quality product in a consistent, efficient and timely manner. You'll answer directly to the Brewmaster and be responsible for working both independently and as part of a team. Attention to detail and flexibility are critical. You'll generally work weekdays and evenings, but hey, beer never sleeps so occasional weekend shifts are required.
