Description:
Who We Are:
WISEACRE Brewing Company is a fast-growing regional brewery located in the gritty but grand city of Memphis, TN.
We first started brewing in 2013 and now have 2 production facilities along with accompanying taprooms and a pizza kitchen serving up New Haven style pies.
Our focus is on making top quality, uniquely flavorful beverages but we have a particular passion for lagers as evidenced by our top-selling, GABF bronze medal winning Tiny Bomb pilsner.
The brewery's core values are summarized with the acronym BEEFY, which has nothing to do with beef but which does stand for Bliss, Education, Excellence, Folks, and Yourself.
These values guide our company culture and operations and we're looking for BEEFY folks with a love of craft beverages to join our team.
Position Details:
The bartender is in charge of serving patrons, providing information to help with beverage selections, presenting ordered choices and effectively ensuring that guests are satisfied with their WISEACRE experience.
The ideal candidate will be able to provide top-quality customer service while maintaining taproom ambiance and transaction accuracy.
In order to help ensure all aspects of this position are performed as expected, measurable metrics will be provided along with regularly scheduled performance reviews.

We are aiming to hire 1-2 bartenders with availability between 20-30 hours per week; some weekend availability is highly preferred but we will likely need daytime/evening shifts covered during the week as well.
