I've been brewing in the Central Valley of California for over 8 years and I'm seeking to take my skills, experience, and talent to a new location (out of CA preferred but will entertain all offers). I have brewed on systems from 3bbl to 20bbl, currently brewing 5-6bbl batches at my nanobrewery/taproom. I have experience in practically every aspect of owning and operating a brewery, including (but not limited to): plumbing, electrical, glycol, and general maintenance, installation and repairs of equipment; raw ingredient sourcing, ordering, receiving and inventory; recipe creation, wort production, yeast management, cellaring, and packaging beer in kegs, cans and bottles; social media posting and management; sales and distribution/deliveries; licensing, taxes and reporting; draught system installation, troubleshooting, maintenance, repair and operation; cleaning all the things; and interaction with and education of customers at taprooms, beerfests and other events.
I'm looking for a Head Brewer position at a brewery I can call home with a team of staff as crazy about craft beer as I am. While I'm an unabashed hop head and love my IPAs, I also enjoy brewing classic beers to style, so I would like to have some creative freedom to make new recipes and perfect existing ones. Above all else, everything I craft is brewed with a fine attention to detail paid to every facet of the process and an unbridled passion for creating the best beer humanly possible.
Please email me at istuntmanmike@gmail.com if you are interested in starting a conversation about moving to your location, joining your team (or helping you create a new one!), and brewing world-class beers for you. I can provide a resume, professional references, and any other information desired.
