Full Job Description

Silver Brothers is a grain-to-glass whiskey distillery and farm located on a historic 220-acre farm in New York’s Hudson River Valley. Our sole focus is to craft world-class whiskey representative of the unique terroir of our farm and surrounding area.

We are looking for a warm, knowledgeable, and hospitality-minded person to help staff our tasting room during weekend hours and guide guests through the Silver Brothers whiskey experience. The ideal candidate loves whiskey, enjoys working with people, and is excited to tell the story of how grain, oak, time, and place come together in each bottle.

Represent the distillery and brand with professionalism, hospitality, and enthusiasm
Monitor responsible alcohol service and ensure guests have a safe and positive experience
Communicate guest feedback, product questions, and operational needs to the broader team
Assist with light operational tasks as needed to support the smooth running of the tasting room

Required Experience

Strong hospitality background and comfort engaging with guests
Interest in whiskey, spirits, food, agriculture, craft production, or local products
Ability to communicate clearly and confidently with a wide range of guests
Experience with tastings, tours, wine service, cocktail service, or retail sales is a plus
Comfort using POS systems and handling customer transactions
