Full time Ambler & Lansdale, PA $16–$20 per hour depending on experience, entry level
Get beer from the tank to the tap — and to the accounts that pour it.
We're hiring an entry-level Brewery Operations Associate to join our production team primarily in Ambler with limited hours supporting Lansdale. This is a hands-on, on-your-feet job that touches every step after the beer is brewed: cellaring, kegging, canning, keg cleaning, and delivering our beer to our Lansdale brewpub and wholesale accounts. No formal brewing experience required, but is a plus. What we need is someone reliable, careful, and eager to learn the craft.
ABOUT WELL CRAFTED
Well Crafted Ambler is our production brewery and taproom in Ambler Yards, opened in 2022, with an indoor/outdoor taproom, beer garden, and on-site food truck. It's where the majority of our beer is made. Our original location in Lansdale, open since 2018, is a brewpub with a restaurant and live entertainment. We're a small, independent team that cares about quality, customer service, and doing things the right way.
