TapRoom Manager

The first beer was poured at TF in October 2018. Since then the family has doubled in size but our mission has stayed the same. We are deeply rooted in a reverence for the German way of making beer: brewing with fresh, high-quality ingredients; slow pours, and big foam. (We like to get creative too). We ferment all our beers in a 15-barrel brewhouse - an open-air concept connected to our Taproom where you can see and smell the entire process.

Our Taproom is the where we like people to experience our beers. Because of this, providing an incredible craft beer experience is essential – from the service they receive, the beers they enjoy, to the space they drink it in. The Taproom Manager is responsible for all aspects of the taproom operations. The most important thing, making sure our guests have the best possible experience. We work really hard to impress them with our family culture, our passionate and educated staff and of course our award winning beer. This position will report to General Manager
