Max's Taphouse Competitors

Quality, Integrity, People, Community and Sustainability These are not just words, but a cultural lifestyle and commitment at Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. Our mission is the same as it has been since Sierra Nevada started in 1980 with a humble hand-built brewhouse - to produce and market the finest ales and lagers possible and to do it responsibly. Today Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. is America’s longest-running craft startup, and boasts the number-one best-selling craft brand in the country—the legendary flagship, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. To this day, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. remains true to its roots. Our founder and owner is still personally involved in every aspect of brewery operation. Most importantly, the Sierra Nevada commitment to quality remains the same. Premium ingredients and time-honored brewing techniques make Sierra Nevada ales and lagers truly exceptional beers. Sierra Nevada strives for quality in everything we do. From pioneering new beer styles to innovating groundbreaking environmental initiatives, we take our time and look at every option to ensure the best possible outcome. This stubborn insistence on quality extends to our workplace environment as well. At Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., we recognize the vital role our employees have in the ongoing success of our company. As an employee of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., you will be challenged to perform at a level that meets or exceeds our high quality standards that our customers have come to expect from us.

In 1986, Harpoon co- founders Rich Doyle and Dan Kenary began brewing Harpoon in Boston to share with others the joy of making—and drinking—great beer. In 2000, we added a second brewery in Windsor, VT to keep up with the demand. We are passionate about our company and our beer, and we work each day together to create great beer drinking experiences. This passion has resulted in many changes throughout the years including our most recent announcement in August of 2014 to become an employee owned company. Though many things have changed since the early days of Harpoon, most things have stayed the same. We still love brewing beer and find that we enjoy it more when shared with friends. Harpoon has over 300 employees who understand that making great beer fun can be more challenging – and more rewarding - than it seems. We do things a bit differently here; different from other companies in general and different from most of our fellow brewers. Different in this case does not mean more complex or harder to understand. Because we also believe in being simple and straightforward. We have a very short list of ‘philosophies’ that underline how we run our business: • Treat others as we would like to be treated ourselves. • Work like an owner and think like a customer. • Make great beer and revel in it or as we say to the rest of the world: Love Beer. Love Life. We love the beer we brew, and we love drinking it together. We’re looking for people who share a commitment to excellence and a sense of humor to join our growing team.
