Want to start a new career in the growing craft beer industry? We’re hiring one person to start as an entry level ‘canner’ at Upslope Brewing Company.

Your main responsibility will be to efficiently put beer into six packs, twelve packs and kegs. You will also learn packaging set up, breakdown and how to clean tanks. Tank cleaning requires the use of chemicals and thereby proper safety procedures must be followed. Additionally, you will be able to put your own firkin on tap and be encouraged to come in on your spare time to learn to brew! Ideally you are someone who-

• Likes hard work
• Finds new ways to increase efficiencies
• Wants to   take on more responsibility in a growing company
• Enjoys drinking great craft beer.
• Has ‘handyman’ skills and knows how to use tools
• Enjoys the outdoors and living in Colorado
•  Is personable and wants to live representing our beer.

Must be able to- Stand on your feet and move at a rapid pace for the entirety of each day. Regularly lift 45 pounds (2 cases of beer) and occasionally at least 80 pounds (half a ½ barrel keg). Learn quickly and demonstrate that you can take care of all tasks while not making mistakes when unsupervised. Typical hours are Monday to Thursday 8:00-4:30, however, in the beer business not every day is smooth so once in a while you will be required to stay later.   There also will be the opportunity to pick up additional hours.   It is encouraged you use your free time to develop yourself and learn more skills to help out the brewery. To apply: Drop your resume off in the tap room or email to Bart@upslopebrewing.dev. We will not reply to comments below.
