Work at Steel City Tap Co. — Craft, Art & American Manufacturing
Steel City Tap Co. is a proudly American-made manufacturer of premium beer tap handles, custom LED signs, and handcrafted bar branding products. Based in the heart of the United States, we combine old-world artisanship with modern manufacturing technology to produce tap handles and signage that stand out on any bar rail or taproom wall.
Who We Are
We are a team of artists, fabricators, and craftspeople who take pride in making things by hand — right here in America. From the first sketch to the final clear coat, every Steel City Tap Co. product is built with intention. Our shop floor is equal parts art studio and manufacturing facility, where creativity and precision engineering meet every day.
What We Make
American-Made Beer Tap Handles: Our flagship products — custom beer tap handles — are manufactured and hand-finished in the USA. From raw material to retail-ready, each handle is shaped, painted, detailed, and quality-checked on site. We supply craft breweries, regional taprooms, and national brands with tap handles that are as functional as they are eye-catching.
Hand Painting & Artistic Finishing: We believe great products deserve a great finish. Our in-house artists hand paint and hand letter tap handles and signs using professional-grade paints, airbrushing, and detail brushwork. If you love the intersection of fine art and functional manufacturing, this is the place for you.
LED Sign Manufacturing: From neon-style LED bar signs to custom illuminated brand pieces, we design, wire, and assemble LED signage in-house. Our LED sign production team handles everything from the aluminum and acrylic substrate cutting to the final electrical assembly and testing — all domestically produced.
Custom Brand Merchandise & Barware: Beyond tap handles and signs, we produce a wide range of branded bar products for breweries and distributors — including printed glassware, custom coasters, branded tap collars, and more. Every product reflects our commitment to quality American craftsmanship.
A Creative Place to Work
At Steel City Tap Co., no two days look the same. One morning you might be hand-painting a detailed brewery logo onto a walnut tap handle. The next afternoon you might be assembling a glowing LED sign for a brand-new taproom. We thrive in an environment where creative problem-solving and skilled hands drive the work forward.
We're looking for people who are passionate about making things — artists, painters, fabricators, assemblers, and production specialists who want to be part of a growing American manufacturing brand in the craft beer and hospitality industry. Whether you're a seasoned sign painter or a detail-obsessed assembler, if you love craft and take pride in your work, we want to hear from you.
