SR EMPLOYEE COMMUNICATIONS PROGRAM MANAGER

Get to Know Us

Ken Grossman started Sierra Nevada in 1980 with a hand-built brewhouse and the odds stacked against him.

That passion forever changed the course of American craft brewing and launched a beer revolution that's in full force today.

We’re committed to advancing a culture of inclusion and believe diversity in all its forms makes us stronger.

We keep pushing boundaries, whether that’s in the brewhouse, with sustainability, or in the great outdoors.
