The Experience, Richmond: East Brother Beer Co New Beers

The Experience:

Lots of choices for your beer palate!

Thinking about  summer travels? Longing for the warm beaches of Mexico? Wish no longer. East Brother’s Mexican Lager now comes in six-packs! Cold, crisp and built to last. Brewed the right way, true to style, and easy-drinking every time. Find it at the taproom, your favorite retailers or on draft across California.

That’s not all they’re brewing up.

They are introducing their Seasonal Release Series—four beers, a perfect balance of ales and lagers, crafted with their dedication to timeless styles:

  • Belgian Tripel – Bold, complex, and beautifully golden.
  • Pre-Pro Lager – A nod to the crisp, flavorful lagers of pre-Prohibition America.
  • Festbier – A smooth, malty Märzen-style lager
  • Dunkel – Rich, toasty, and endlessly drinkable.

By focusing on four distinctive beers, they’re making sure each one gets the attention it deserves—so you can enjoy time-honored styles at their best. Which one are you trying first?

Get on down to the taproom for some beer tasting and your favorite food trucks.

HOURS: Wed, Thurs, Fri, 3-9pm; Saturday & Sunday, 11am – 9pm.
