    Sleeping Giant Brewing Company is hiring again! We are currently looking for both full-time Brewers/Cellarmen as well as Packaging Specialists. After launching in January 2015, we have enjoyed tremendous growth as the first dedicated contract brewery in the Western United States. This is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor of an aggressively growing start up and be the architect of your own career path within the company.
