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.
Like most good stories, ours started over a beer.
We started Young Henrys in Newtown in 2012, after co-founders Oscar McMahon and Richard Adamson felt that the Australian beer scene should be more adventurous, innovative and fun.
With a small brew kit, we set about ensuring no local would every go thirsty again! Since then, we’ve grown to make beer, cider, gin and whisky and serve the people across the country.
We stand by our unwavering vision to keep things local, reduce our environmental impact and collaborate with like-minded, passionate and creative people, to help turn up the volume on diverse voices in our community.
More than just a name, BALTER is the sense of enjoyment you get from doing something you love, just for the thrill of it.
The cool thing is this enjoyment can be found anywhere. You could be winning World Tinnie Hurling (a sport we invented: ) titles, or simply feeling triumphant because you’ve navigated the mind bend of putting an IKEA shelf together. Its purest origins can be found at the end of a good day’s work when you sit back, sip on an epic beer and go… aaaah!
At Balter, we’re all about celebrating that enjoyment with you, because beer is more than just a drink: it draws tribes together and is a companion to many great moments in life.
Our #1 philosophy is that your taste buds come first. A neat can and cool place to hang are great, but if our brews don’t tickle your tongue and put a grin on your head then we haven’t done our job.
