Interesting - now you've got me wanting to try one of their beers! I found this on RateBeer.com! If it's what you want, I say go for it! Good luck!

Conrats on getting the interviews. Those beers on the website look goooood!
Wish you luck!

ratebeer.com didn't give 'em too much did they? maybe i should ask fpr a sample or two first!

www.beeradvocate.com had much better reviews.

I've heard of them before... I may have even had one IIRC, and IIRC (again) it was pretty good.

Best of luck!

I sometimes read those beer rating websites, but just for #*@%s and giggles. They frequently pan beers I love and laud some I hate, and vice versa. About as consistent as movie critics as far as I can tell. Keep us posted!

I've been toying with the notion of applying at our local brewpub, Flatbranch Brewing Co., but never got around to it. I doubt I'll have the success you did, but I think I'm going to try. I'm tired of my current job, and I love brewing, so it makes sense.

Oh, yeah... Congratulations! I hope your second interview goes well also. Do you think you can list this site as a reference?

well, you know what i do? i go to www.prombrewer.com and check the classifieds. when i see one posted for assistant brewer, i send my resume. even a blind squirrel finds a nut right?????

every once in a while, you gotta take a chance. it's either w/ the hot blonde at the bar, the boss you always wanted to tell off, or the job you always wanted to go for. "sometimes, you just gotta say fu*k it."

cheers bro! (it could be the awesome Hop Rod Rye talk'n?)
