ASAHI BEER USA | OCTOPI BREWING
BATCHING TEAM BREWER
You're the Chef Behind Every Batch We Make
Full-Time
ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING
Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. As a contract brewery, our batching team works across everything we produce — beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas — bringing every recipe's ingredients and additives together with precision.
