rock’n Roll Flea Market

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:

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.

The Experience:

The skies are alive, with the sound of…the Royal Canadian Air Force!

Even without the Blue Angels, the skies above Alameda are about to get wild: the Royal Canadian Air Force Snowbirds are flying this year, and Faction’s got one of the best views in the Bay.

They’re opening early Saturday and Sunday at 11:30am for Fleet Week! Grab a beer, kick back on the patio, and watch the show from their taproom with three food trucks on site, sunshine overhead, and cold craft beer flowing all weekend. The crew down at Faction wants you to join them and soak up some sunshine while watching the skies go wild.
