The Experience, Alameda: Faction Brewing Beer Weekend

The Experience:

586 is in the building!

Their award-winning, Pale 586, is back on draft! Hopped with HBC 586 in both cryo and pellet form for that classic West Coast snap and aromatic punch. It’s crisp, balanced, and way too easy to keep going back. Their crew says it’s Draft Only, “so come get it…or regret it.”

The weather is beautiful and the views at Faction are incredible. Finish off your SF Beer Week plans by drinking every single one of their limited collab beers out on the patio! Or just tap into their 20+ taps of craft beer. So many choices – you may have to go today and tomorrow.

The crew at Faction Brewing can’t wait to see you and tell you about all their new collaborative beers !

The Experience, Richmond: East Brother Beer Co. SF Rec Room Tasty Bites

The Experience:

East Brother’s take on the American hoppy ale Gold IPA:

It’s built on the classics; brewed for now. Bright on the nose, bold on the palate, and finished clean and dry. Inspired by the West Coast IPAs that helped define a generation of craft beer, this one stays rooted in the fundamentals. A classic ale base, a thoughtful hop bill and just enough wheat in the grain bill to add body and texture without stealing the spotlight.

What you’ll notice first:

  • Bright citrus and pine aromatics
  • A hop-forward flavor that stays balanced
  • A dry, clean finish that keeps you coming back

This is an IPA that respects where the style came from: no gimmicks, no shortcuts. Just a well-built ale, designed to last. Find it at their taprooms, to-go, shipped in CA, or through select retailers: https://bit.ly/49pTT24
