pFriem (pronounced “freem”) artisanal beers are symphonies of flavor and balance, influenced by the great brewers of Europe, but unmistakably true to our homegrown roots in the Pacific Northwest. We are guided by a religious commitment to quality and the never-ending pursuit of innovation. Although they are served humbly, each glass is overflowing with pride and a relentless aspiration to brew the best beer in the world.

About the role

You will perform daily brewing and cellar operations at a 48,000bbl per year, and growing, brewery. Brewers at pFriem are responsible for many tasks from raw material handling through to brite beer. The position requires a willingness to train on a diverse set of skills throughout the brewing process.

Critical responsibilities:

  • Wort production on a 50bbl semi-automated GEA brewhouse.
  • Filtration using a semi-automated separator and lenticular filter.
  • All cellar work, including daily gravities, yeast handling, dry hopping, yeast drops, spent grain and high strength solids removal.
  • CIP and SIP operations for all vessels, brewhouse, and transfer lines.
  • Train on new equipment and processes as the production facility expands.
  • Data collection and entry throughout a shift.
  • Work a rotating shift schedule: 4x10h; 5a-3p or 2p-12a.
  • Adhere to SOPs, checklists, and troubleshooting guides and contribute to edits and process improvements.
  • Cleaning and general facilities upkeep.
  • Safely operate a stand-up electric forklift and willingness to be certified within 30 days.
  • Contribute to a safe working environment and adhere to all safety protocols.
  • Be on time for all shifts, ready to work, with a clear head.
  • Be able to work in a standing position for long periods of time.
  • Be able to lift up to 50 lbs safely and push or pull up to 165 lbs.

This list is not exhaustive of the responsibilities required.
