Trying to get into the craft beer industry. I have a bs in finance. Would like to do possible marketing or work in the actual brewery. Want to learn the business and help the company kick ass. Hopes to one day open my own brewery.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Really, the best thing would be to contact breweries directly. There's so much competition for this kind of work, they don't really need to advertise it. Larger breweries will have job openings on the website, others you may have to find the contact info of some higher ups and talk to them directly. Ultimately, though, you should consider work that will help you on your goal to owning a brewery, not so much finance and marketing work. It's cool to work at a brewery, but doing financials at a brewery will be 99.995% the same as doing financials at a sheet metal manufacturer.
