As our Social Media & PR Intern, you’ll get hands-on experience developing and executing creative campaigns that bring our brand to life. You’ll work directly with the marketing manager and distillery team on projects such as:

• Community Engagement: Interact with our followers, respond to comments, and grow our online community.
• Public Relations: Assist with press releases, media lists, and outreach to local journalists and influencers.
• Events & Promotions: Support tasting room events, festivals, and product launches.
• Analytics & Reporting: Track engagement metrics and recommend strategies for growth.

What We’re Looking For

• Passion for craft spirits, hospitality, or artisan brands.
• Strong writing and storytelling skills with a creative eye for visuals.
• Familiarity with major social media platforms and content trends.
• Basic photo/video editing skills (Canva, Adobe, or similar tools).
• Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and bring fresh ideas.
• Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in marketing, communications, PR, or related field.

What You’ll Gain

• Real-world marketing and PR experience in the craft beverage industry.
• Portfolio-worthy content and campaign projects.
• Networking opportunities with media, local businesses, and community partners.
• A behind-the-scenes look at how great spirits — and great brands — are made.
