Stable Craft Brewing is a rapidly expanding farm brewery and cider making operation partnered with our sister company AgriBev Distribution which allows us to place beer and cider where craft is best suited. Stable Craft Brewing is a destination farm brewery with multiple outlets to feature our beer and cider.
We are located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains of central Virginia, specifically Augusta County, VA.
Stable Craft Brewing is a field-to-glass operation, growing our own hops, apples and specializing in sustainable practices.
We brew on a 10 bbl direct fire system with six 10-bbl and four 20-bbl fermentation vessels with associated brite tanks. We also have a ½ bbl pilot system for cultivating creative recipes and small batch releases.
Stable Craft Brewing is looking for an individual with a background in beer and or cider- having worked in a professional brewing environment for 12 months. If you are hard-working, motivated, responsible and able to think on your feet, we would like to hear from you.
