  • Hiring Taproom Associates in Richmond, CA

    Want to get in on the ground floor at an exciting new brewery? How about one that guarantees a beer budget for you to further your beer education with the team? Armistice Brewing Company is hiring a part-time Taproom Associate, and we're looking for someone to grow with us.

    Armistice Brewing Company is a sibling-owned and operated, taproom-oriented craft brewery in the waterside neighborhood of Marina Bay in Richmond. We believe that at its best, beer makes it easier to have a conversation with someone who you might not otherwise by bridging differences and fostering understanding. Our motto, Ales & Allies, speaks to our belief in the cultural value of beer and public houses. Our taproom is a welcoming community space that serves beer at peak freshness. Our twenty-four taps are constantly rotating with innovative beers that are the product of hard work and experimentation.

    We're looking for someone who shares our twin commitments to serving fresh, hand-crafted beer and to building a welcoming community in the city of Pride and Purpose. Our taproom employees will foster a warm, neighborhood community vibe by remembering our regulars and welcoming newcomers. We are looking for someone who is passionate about customer service to our diverse community and beer. You will be responsible for welcoming customers, describing and selling beers, and representing our brand and our community. Beer knowledge (Cicerones and BJCP judges) is a plus, but we aim to invest in our employees' beer education and growth. We are more upstart than startup, so even though we are only hiring part-time employees now, we will be growing quickly with opportunities both in the taproom, in the field, and in the brewhouse. Please identify any complimentary skills you may have in your application (ie, marketing, social media, welding, brewing, molecular biology, event planning, sales, etc.).

    • Providing top-notch customer service to all guests and building a positive experience for them in the taproom.

    • Pouring beer and filling growlers and crowlers according to our procedures.
    • Educating customers who buy beer-to-go about proper handling and storage.
    • Educating customers about beer styles, ingredients, and processes (reference materials will be provided and a brewer is always on hand for tough questions!).
    • Participating in our paid ongoing employee education program, including triangle tastings, trainings, brewing, and sampling our beer and other beer on the market.
    • Maintaining professionalism with guests, management, and co-workers.
    • Demonstrating scheduling flexibility as we take on our first few months in operations.
    • Following our standard operating procedures.
    • Learning how to use our POS system.
    • Maintain draft system and clean draft lines.
    • Willingness to perform other duties as assigned.
    • Enthusiasm about being a part of a growing team.

    Qualifications:

    • Must be 21 years of age
    • Prior service experience in a bar, restaurant, brewery, or winery is a plus
    • Possess basic math skills and the ability to handle money
    • Possess strong communication skills and the desire to improve them
    • Posses or be able to obtain training on responsible beverage service
    • Possess working knowledge of beer and craft beer industry
    • Possess strong knowledge and enforcement of ABC laws
    • Possess the desire to learn and grow with the company
    • Possess awareness of local, state and federal health and sanitation laws
    • Able to lift heavy objects (25-50 lbs)
