Default Got a gig at a nano-brewery!

I am STOKED! I got a gig doing general helping at a local nano-brewery today. It is volunteer to start, but I will be helping with brew days and other things. Just to tell you how you can move up here, the guy that started doing my gig here a year ago, got moved up to head brewer there...he just took a job at a brewpub in Savannah, Ga as their brewmaster. He learned everything that he knows about brewing at this nano-brewery. These guys have their brews in a LOT of local restaurants in Ga. and have almost a cult following. Big things are coming for this brewery in the next few months and I am SO glad I am in on the ground floor!

Check em out on FB - https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Burnt-Hickory-Brewery/247400930777?fref=ts

And their website (not completed yet) - http://www.burnthickorybrewery.com

It is volunteer, but definitely could lead somewhere...

Congratulations! Learn everything you can! (And you could get not paid for doing a lot worse things than that!)

It's like beer school really, I would love to do this like once a week somewhere but just don't really have the time to commit to that.
