  • Head Brewer - Niagara Falls, ON

    Wanted: Head Brewer

    Brewery: Counterpart Brewing

    Location: Niagara Falls, ON


    We are a start-up brewery in Niagara Falls, ON and are currently seeking an experienced head brewer to join our team.

    Company Details:

    We are located in the north end of Niagara Falls in a 6000 sq ft industrial building. We have ordered a 15 BBL 2-vessel brewhouse from Criveller Group which is expected to arrive in late October by which time we would like our head brewer to be hired to oversee the install and take part in the commissioning.

    At Counterpart Brewing, we plan to specialize in the beers we love most. There will be a fairly heavy focus on hazy IPAs, DIPAs and pale ales but we would like to have a well rounded tap list which will also include dry hopped/fruited kettle sours, adjunct stouts/porters, lagers, saisons and a barrel program.

    Requirements of the position:

    • Must already be eligible to work in Canada
    • Must have a minimum of 3 years experience, preferably as a head brewer but at minimum as an assistant brewer with an active role in recipe formulation on a comparable system
    • Must have a high level of experience with recipe formulation, ideally in the styles we intend to specialize in
    • Must have experience managing a barrel program
    • Must have experience working with wild yeast and bacteria
    • Experience with start-ups and/or brewery expansions would be considered an asset
    • Experience with canning and bottling would be considered an asset
    • Experience maintaining equipment and an ability to trouble shoot issues as they arise would be considered an asset

    Responsibilities:

    • All aspects of running a production brewery including the standard items required for beer production (grain handling, wort production, yeast collection, etc) in addition to ordering and tracking inventory, performing QA/lab analysis and maintaining a clean and safe workplace
    • Must be a team player which will include items such as product training for front of house and future production staff, collaborating with other brewers and in general, contributing towards the direction and vision of the brewery

    Compensation:

    • This will be a salaried position which will pay upwards of $55,000 depending on competence and experience
    • A basic benefits package will be provided
    • Opportunities for equity in the company based on years of service will be available

    At Counterpart Brewing we have abounding love, passion and enthusiasm for craft beer and this industry and expect our head brewer to share this sentiment. We have very high standards and expectations for our beer program and as such will do everything we can to put our brewer in a position to be successful as well as give them the tools and freedom to express themselves creatively.

    If you have interest please send resumes to greggnys@hotmail.com .

    Cheers!
