  • 4yr Professional Brewer seeking Managemnt Op

    Greetings fellow industry professionals,

    I have been professionally brewing for over four years and looking for the next step. I have been the head brewer, the brewer, the cellar man and filter man. I understand how a brewhouse works at it's optimal. I have started up a brewery, done a complete build out and enjoyed the challenge of all it. Have stayed actively involved in the local homebrew club as well.

    I am seeking a management position at a brewery. Whether on production, brewhouse or cellar, I am capable.
    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Please see below for my resume and I have reference letters upon request.

    Thanks,

    ~Johann~
