  • Kros strain brewing company is hiring a brewer

    Kros Strain Brewing, located in LaVista, Nebraska, is seeking a full-time Brewer/Cellarperson. Kros Strain Brewing is currently under construction with beer production beginning in April 2017. The brewery will have a 15bbl custom 3-vessel brewhouse capable of multiple batches per day and package beer in kegs and 12oz bottles and 22oz bottles. Kros Strain Brewing is located within minutes of 4 other breweries, right off of a bike path, and in an up and coming brewery-centric area of the Omaha metro. Consistently ranked one of the best places to live and start a business, Omaha’s craft beer industry is poised to see rapid growth in the coming years.

    The brewery is owned and operated by two experienced brewers looking to bring something new to the Nebraska craft beer market. Kros Strain intends to use a robust QA/QC program. The brewery will initially offer an easy drinking traditional German Helles, a super juicy IPA, a roasty English style mild/amber, and a hugely aromatic double IPA. Once established Kros Strain will offer Belgian style ales, barrel-aged specialties, and sours.

    JOB DESCRIPTION

    The Brewer/Cellarperson will be responsible for wort production, packaging, tank cleaning, yeast counting, and some QA/QC work. This is a wide-ranging position as we are a startup brewery and will expect all employees to jump in where needed.

    This is not an entry level position. The ideal candidate will have at least 1 year experience in a packaging brewery. Additionally, lab skills, bottling experience, forklift certification, sensory analysis skills, barrel aging experience, award winning beer experience and a brewing education are highly desired.

    We are looking for the type of individual that constantly thinks about processes and is always looking to improve them. This type of person is someone who can come up with solutions to errors and problems that arise.

    All the standard brewery work requirements apply - lift 55lbs, work in cold/wet/hot environments, work with chemicals, flexible scheduling, etc.

    WORK ENVIRONMENT

    Our mission is to make the best beer possible and have a great time doing it. We look at all our employees as collaborative partners and value their input and opinions on all aspects of the business. Brewers will have the opportunity to design recipes and do specialty beers. There will be opportunities to grow. We want you to be happy!

    *****

    This position is based in LaVista, NE and will start mid to late April. Please send your cover letter explaining qualifications and experience that is not evident on your resume, and a resume to beer@krosstrainbrewing.com.
