Trademark Brewing® is seeking a Head Brewer for our production brewery and tap room, located in Long Beach, California. Established Professional Brewers with commercial experience should apply. 3 years (minimum) professional experience is required, and preference will be given to those with formal training.
The 19,500 sq/ft facility is located at the top of Downtown Long Beach in an up and coming area with lots of redevelopment. The 3,000 sq/ft tasting room faces a major thoroughfare and a large outdoor patio on a private courtyard. We’re just 300’ from light rail and public transit, and we expect a bustling tap room. We’re investing in the neighborhood with and excited to have the right individuals come join the team.
Our Beerfolio is broken into three primary categories: everything hoppy, continental (German, UK, French, Belgian, etc), and barrel aged (big beers, sours and funk). This is an opportunity to create a broad array of beers in a collaborative environment with lots of creative freedom to experiment. We have invested heavily in high end equipment, including a highly automated 17bbl mash filter brewhouse and 240bbl of unitanks in the cellar. Foeders, a barrel program and a laboratory in the works as well. We prefer to work smarter, not harder, while creating amazing beer with a focus on quality, consistency and innovation.
Being a new brewery, we'll all put in some long hours and work some evenings and weekends as required. The upshot that the compensation is competitive, the founders will be there every step of the way, and and we’re assembling a great team. We firmly believe that this is an opportunity for everyone. We want to make some amazing beer and further the Long Beach and greater LA beer culture. This could be your chance to help steer a big ship and step up to a leadership role in a production brewery with endless ambition, determination and drive. That means you'll need to highly motivated brewer with long-term goals, a team player, have a willingness to work outside your primary job description, communicate clearly, work efficiently without supervision, and have an endless passion for craft beer and a desire to put Trademark Brewing on the map.
