Description

About Us:

Pennsylvania Libations is a management company for dozens of Pennsylvania producers. The company was started by Christian Simmons out of Latrobe, PA with one distillery and a backpack of their spirits. From going door to door selling to bars/restaurants, he has built a team of industry professionals who have now grown the company to multiple retail stores, as well as being the management company for one of the largest breweries in the state. Our company just launched E-Commerce and have been self-delivering locally while working with a courier service to get products to customers outside of our reach. We also have created a sales and distribution team for the Greater Pittsburgh area. We’re expanding! 

We currently have the Spirits Shop, Wine Shop, an indoor Taproom and outdoor patio bar.

We are looking for flexible, industry professionals to bartend.
