So I have no formal training, no school, no experience other than at home. But I have been brewing for a while and have tried a little bit of everything as far as home brewing goes. Maybe even more so than some, (tried malting my own barley for a while and drying/roasting it for all-grain recipes)
I emailed a brewery in an area I plan to move to in the near future. The head brewer got back to me and confirmed that they don't hire a lot because they are a smaller brewery but requested my resume and cover letter anyways.
My question it: What kind of things should I talk about in my cover letter? What are important points and things to really stress about my brewing experience? I am in love with brewing and want to go commercial in order to gain experience. I know breweries don't pay well and the work can be hard. I'm an all-year round roofer in Canada, a brewery would be easier (physically) and a step up for me in pay. Any help at all would be appreciated. Its been so long since I have had to modify my resume or write a cover letter.
