  • Assistant Brewer Needed at TrimTab Brewing Co. in Birmingham, AL

    Greetings from Birmingham, Alabama - the Magic City of the South! Allow us to make a quick introduction. TrimTab Brewing Co. is a new brewery that launched in downtown Birmingham in January under the helm of a UC Davis Alum. After two years of planning and build-out, TTBC has a home in a 14,000 sf facility (previously a vintage car museum) that is currently undergoing renovations. We operate a new 30-bbl Specific Mechanical brewhouse, a unique taproom out of the museum’s old paint room, and coordinate a sales team that currently brings our brand into over 100 accounts in the northern half of the state. We are currently on track to produce aproximately 2,000 bbls in our first year of operation and plans are in place to bring our first expansion - an automated canning line and 120 bbls of new fermentation capacity - in the next eight months. Our brand concept is simple – to create complex balanced beer and to celebrate small sources of large-scale change, the “trim tab concept”.

    We at TrimTab Brewing Co. are seeking our first full-time assistant brewer/cellarperson - and we are looking for someone special. We want vision. We want passion. We want someone that is hungry to make the world a better place through our beer and through our mission. As people, and as a company we live by a very deliberate philosophy of integrity, innovation, fun, quality, unabashed creativity, joy, and a belief that great things are possible from small and unassuming sources. We want skill and we want a solid pedigree of experience, but we don’t want introverts. This is not a solicitation for applications, but an invitation for the right person to join our family.

    Responsibilities will include:
    • General Cleaning/Sanitation
    • Packaging (initially draft only)
    • Grain milling (all bag malt)
    • Pilot batch brewing and training on the 30-bbl brewhouse
    • Monitoring Fermentation
    • Transfers/filtration
    • Participation in other aspects of the business as needed

    Requirements:
    • In-depth knowledge of the brewing process
    • College degree (preferred), with study in biology, chemistry, or engineering
    • A positive attitude, attention to detail, and strong work ethic
    • A continual endeavor towards excellence and a real need to learn/improve
    • An acceptance and openness toward direct feedback
    • The ability to repeatedly lift 55 lbs and move 165 lbs
    • A flexible schedule and willingness to work any shift (including weekends)
    • The ability to stand for 12 hours, work in a non-temperature controlled environment (Alabama!), deal with heights, tight spaces, ladders, lifts, and climbing stairs
    • The belief that this is more than a job

    In general we will favorably look upon:
    • Professional brewing education
    • Lab experience
    • Mechanical experience
    • Previous brewery/food production facility work
    • An ability to laugh at yourself

    If you believe that you could both be a technical and cultural fit for us please get in touch. Please send a resume and cover letter to contact@trimtabbrewing.com with “Brewing Job” as the subject.
