The Experience, Alameda: Faction Brewing New Beer + Events

The Experience:

A Santa Cruz/East Bay collab!?! You know it’s gonna go down easy.

Faction Brewing’s recent Santa Cruz collaboration is the “Coo Coo Ca Choo” IPA, a West Coast IPA brewed with Mosaic and Citra hops, a partnership with Santa Cruz’s Private Press Brewing, offering citrusy, fruity notes with balanced bitterness, and it’s available in their taproom and for shipping and in cans (4-packs) for purchase from Faction. 

You can find it on Faction’s online store or visit their Alameda tasting room to try it!

A couple of calendar notables:

  • Thurs, Dec 18 at 7pm – Ocean Hoptimism is closing the year with something that hits way deeper than the tide charts. Ocean Hoptimism is back with artist Andres Amador, the guy who turns entire beaches into temporary works of art and somehow leaves you seeing the coastline, and yourself differently.
  • Sat, Dec 20,  1 –  6pm –  Faction Brewing Winter Market! By Alternative Entertainment Marketing & Events. Over 35 vendors, beer and great food!

Faction Brewing’s Hours: Wed/Thu 2-8pm; Fri/Sat 12-8pm; Sun 12-6pm. Non-alcoholic beverages are also available for purchase. They  have a large outdoor patio and indoor seating is also available. Call to confirm hours (510) 523-2739.
