Here’s the note from loyal reader Bill of Sierra Nevada:

Just wanted to give you a heads-up, we’re getting ready to go on a HUGE hiring push for our forthcoming Taproom and Restaurant.

We’re looking to add an additional 150 staff members in both front-of-the-house, back-of-the-house and supervisor positions—effectively doubling the number of employees here at the brewery. Among the positions we’re eager to fill are an experienced pizza cook to work with our wood-fired oven and a bakery/pastry manager to oversee baked goods. Our Taproom and Restaurant will open to the public in the first quarter of 2015.

A little background on Sierra Nevada’s philosophy toward food and beer. In Chico, our Taproom and Restaurant is a centerpiece of the brewery. We offer a wide variety of beer-friendly food focusing on local, seasonal and sustainable meat and produce. We source many of our ingredients from our organic estate garden at the brewery itself. Our Mills River restaurant will maintain much of the same philosophy and it too will have on-site gardens and a greenhouse supplying fresh organic ingredients.
