Why this role might be a fit
New restaurant opening — get in on the ground floor of a refined American concept from Upland Brewing Company (Indiana craft beer pioneer since 1998). The menu is anchored by Upland's historic Champagne Velvet pilsner, a 1902 pre-Prohibition recipe revived in 2013. Replaces the former I.C. Brewhouse at 2355 Mercantile St in Castle Rock. New kitchen, $18/hr, 2 openings. Strong fit if you want to cook from real recipes (not bar-food templates) in a refined-American program backed by a real brewery.
