Westbound & Down Brewing Co — Brewery Representative
Join Colorado’s Fastest-Growing & Most Award-Winning Brewery since 2019
Founded in 2015 in the heart of the Rockies, Westbound & Down Brewing Company has grown from a single mountain-town brewpub into one of Colorado’s most celebrated independent breweries. With acclaimed locations in Idaho Springs, Lafayette, Denver’s Dairy Block, and new ventures in Aspen, Basalt, and soon to be Wheat Ridge, we’re building something special — a company rooted in hospitality, adventure, and an obsession with world-class beer.
Our dedication to quality and creativity has earned us national recognition — including seven medals at the 2025 Great American Beer Festival and the title of Brewery & Brewer of the Year (5,001–15,000 Barrels). That follows our 2019 GABF win as Midsize Brewpub of the Year, cementing our reputation as one of the premier breweries in the country.
Now, we’re looking for a motivated and ambitious Brewery Representative to help continue that momentum.
