THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN WORKING WITH US! Please read all information below carefully before signing up.
Stewards Of Beer is thrilled to once again be providing Brew Crew services for Barrel & Flow Fest at The Stacks at 3 Crossings (Strip District) on Saturday, August 10, 2024.
Unlike many beer fests who rely on the help of volunteers, we are seeking to hire a crew of reliable, motivated, and hard-working people to fill several paid subcontractor positions to help make this a kick-ass event. This allows us to pay people a fair wage for the hard work they do to support Flow Fest. This will be a long day and a lot of work, but it will also be a great time supporting an important mission.
- Duties (*see below for a more detailed explanation of the duties required) will include set-up, tear-down/cleanup, vendor load-in/load-out assistance, brewer/vendor satisfaction services (deliver ice, empty dump buckets, empty/transport trash, etc.), and more.
- Because Second shift is later, messier, and doesn’t offer as much opportunity to partake in the fest, we pay Second shift workers a higher rate.
- All team members will be hired as independent contractors and will be paid via direct deposit approximately two weeks after the event.
We are seeking to fill several positions for each of these two shifts:
First shift
8:00 am – 4:00 pm
$20/hr ($160 total)
Second shift
4:00 pm – 12:00 am
$25/hr ($200 total)
- If you are interested in applying to join our team for the day, select the shift(s) below that interest you and complete the application. (Must be 21+ years old.)
- Signing up does not guarantee you a spot, and we have more spots available than we actually intend to fill.
- We are taking more applications than we need in order to have a waitlist/backups.
We will be in touch shortly to confirm your intent/availability to work this fest.
Thank you for your interest in helping us support a fantastic beer fest!!

IMPORTANT Mandatory Walkthrough/Training: Brew Crew team members will be required to attend an in-person walkthrough at the festival location sometime in early August. This is important because the festival is so large and we need to make sure that everyone working is able to hit the ground running and know where they’re going and what they’re doing. Dates/times are TBD, but we will offer at least two opportunities, both in the evening. This training will last one hour and will also include Bystander Intervention training provided by Pittsburgh Action Against Rape (PAAR). Attendees will receive an additional $20 in their paycheck after working the fest.
