Key Responsibilities: Packaging & Cellar Operations: Operate keg cleaning and filling equipment with attention to cleanliness and accuracy.

Clean and sanitize hoses, fittings, draft lines, and brewing equipment. Brewhouse Training & Support: Learn and assist with wort production on both the 15-barrel brewhouse and 2-barrel pilot system. General Duties: Keep production and packaging areas clean, organized, and safe. Follow all safety protocols and personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements. Assist with raw material handling, inventory management, and restocking. Qualifications: Prior experience in a brewery, packaging, or cellar operations preferred. Strong work ethic, positive attitude, and ability to work independently or as part of a team. Must be able to lift 55+ lbs repeatedly and maneuver full kegs. Flexible schedule, including availability on weekends or evenings as needed. Preferred Skills: Mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills. Forklift or pallet jack experience is a plus. Passion for craft beer and interest in brewing education or certification. #J-18808-Ljbffr
