Shift Brewer

We are looking to find a new teammate to help us in an aggressive growth phase. We are currently renovating a second brewery and will need to staff up. Moniker is heavily lager focused but this second 3.5bbl location is specifically going to allow us to focus on several off styles to round out our entire portfolio. If you are interested in making a variety of old world and experimental beers this is your opportunity. This position is an hourly position for executing and/or assisting in day to day brewery operations with strong potential to grow and expand responsibilities.
