The Experience, Alameda: Faction Brewing New Beer

The Experience:

Branching out!

Consider this their ‘hold my beer’ moment. Faction Brewing is branching out with a Sahti!

Branching Out is a wild farmhouse ale loaded with fonio grain from West Africa, Belgian Munich malt, flaked rye, juniper berries, cedar branches, and if all that wasn’t interesting enough, they plopped in some Hersbrucker hops! [5.8%]

Rustic. Herbal. Different in the best way. Draft only. So you have to get down to Faction and branch out with them!

The Experience, Alameda: The Park Street Tavern Summer

The Experience:

The Wedge jumpstarts your summer!

Days are getting warmer and now it is time to indulge in a delicious Wedge Salad. Crisp iceberg lettuce topped with smoky bacon and rich bleu cheese dressing makes it a favorite classic at The Park Street Tavern. You can order your salad with extra bacon or cheese. Just let your server know.

The Wedge has been around since the early 20th century, appearing in cookbooks and then every steakhouse.  Imagine how the crispness of the iceberg lettuce along with bleu cheese dressing complements a hearty steak. It worked. And it stuck. Perfect combo. Check it out.

The Experience, Alameda: Alameda Brewing Co Music

The Experience:

What are you doing on Saturday?

Take a break Sat, May 31 from 3-5pm and snag a beer at Alameda Brewing and vibe with the sounds of Kate Burkhart Acoustic Duo.

The Kate Burkart Band is a true Americana blend of rock, twang, and some quiet introspection. The common thread? Lyrics that tell a story and draw the listener in. Most often compared with Lucinda Williams, Kate was recently called “Neil Young with a dash of Karen Carpenter”… shows are everywhere throughout the San Francisco Bay Area! Besides her full band, Kate gigs in an acoustic format, as she will do on Saturday. Take a listen.

Don’t forget you can bring in your own food from nearby restaurants or Alameda Marketplace to nosh on as you sip your brew.

They can’t wait to see you! They’ve been crafting island-inspired brews in Alameda since 2015.

Hours: Tues – Sat 12-10pm; Sun 12-7pm.

Where:

1716 Park Street
Alameda
