    Probably assistant taste tester.

    As a brewery the jobs won't pay particularly well, but there will be a lot of opportunity if you are looking.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    I was really pulling for Columbus. Not because I thought employment there was likely. Or because I have a particular affinity for their beer. But because I like to win.

    This seems reasonable.

    There are now Stone commercials on Columbus radio stations talking about how it was a really hard decision and even though we aren't getting the brewery we are getting a special draft beer blah blah blah. Like we need a consolation price for being the runner up. Jerks.
