Walled City beer tasting role ‘the best job ever’

A Co Derry brewery was overwhelmed with applications for the “best job ever” after staff announced they’re on the lookout for new beer tasters.

Staff at the Walled City Brewery on Ebrington Street in the city are looking out for enthusiastic beer lovers interested in trying a wide variety of pints – with reimbursement for your time spent tasting coming in the form of more beers.

They said they need more tasters as in 2023 they set themselves the challenge of “making our [their] beers even better.”

But like every job, there are a number of job requirements for the role.

Posting on social media, Walled City Brewery said the terms and conditions for the ideal person for this role are:

  • Must be a fan of local beer
  • Available on Fridays in Derry just after 5pm
  • Class banter
  • Sophisticated palate

They said: “In 2023 we have set ourselves the target of making our beers even better. But, as much as James & Josh like awkwardly staring at each other over a beer…we realised we need more tasters

“We will reimburse your time in beers (because it’s a beer taster job).”
