Faction Brewing

This isn't one you need to overthink. Just a nice spring day and a cold Faction Pils in hand. Crisp, clean, and always ready for you [4.8%].

Small beer, big personality. Petite Saison is here and it's delicate, complex, and absolutely not to be underestimated. Pilsner malt, flaked oats, toasted wheat, and rye with a whisper of Hallertau Mittelfruh. 4.8% and dangerously drinkable. On draft now.

This one drinks smoother than it should. Our Maibock is a traditional German bock brewed with dark Munich and toasted wheat malts, then lightly hopped with Saaz for a clean, balanced finish [8%]. It’s draft only, so if you want it, you know where to find it.

Rain like this used to mean quarters, neon lights, and losing track of time. We brought that back...plus beer. Pinball, Pac-Man, and a brewery offering way more than an evening doom-scrolling on your couch.

Pale 586 is here and not to be overlooked. This West Coast Pale Ale is hopped with HBC 586 cryo and pellets, an experimental variety from the Hop Breeding Company that’s doing a whole lot in a very good way. Bright, punchy, and dangerously easy to keep going back to.

It’s the first day of Spring. The flowers are blooming, everything’s waking up, the sun is fully committed (maybe a little too committed), and yeah… Spring IPA is back. 🍻

Fresh cans just dropped. Act accordingly. 🍻 Grab a few rounds on the patio, soak up the sun, then take a stack of cans home with you.

Resin Riot - our latest collab with Shred Beer Company brings together American 2-row, German Pilsner, 20% flaked rice, and a heavy-handed hit of Simcoe, Centennial, Strata, and Mosaic Cryo in a proper West Coast IPA [6.8%] On tap/in cans. Grab it before the crowd does

Got something worth celebrating? Birthdays, work parties, reunions, “we survived the week” gatherings… we’ve got the space for it. And hey, Alameda seems to agree. We were voted Alameda’s Stars 2026 Best Event Venue. Not a bad place to throw a party.

586 is in the building! Our 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 to [5.8%]. Draft only, come get it - or regret it

It’s no secret. Jugdish IPA is back. A crisp West Coast IPA hopped to the brim with Nelson and Strata, that keeps you reaching for more. On tap, and in cans. Come stock up.

Day one of SF Beer Week! We didn’t just participate. We made it count with: Four collaboration beers. Fresh recipes. Sleek black cans. If you’re mapping out stops, put us on it. Beer Week only happens once a year. Drink accordingly.

Somewhere in Pennsylvania, a giant rodent crawled out of a hole and told us to brew more Winter IPA. We're not in the position to argue with a short-term climate expert...no matter how unorthodox his practices may be. Winter IPA is here to stay. Stock up.

🚨New beer alert! Hamaru IPA A West Coast IPA built to hit hard and finish clean. Hopped with NZ 101, NZ 105, and Ekuanot, bringing bright citrus, punchy aromatics, and just enough bite to keep things interesting [7.1%]. Here for anyone ready to move past Dry January properly.

Fresh cans are ready. A mix of familiar favorites and everyday go-tos. Easy drinking, no overthinking required. Stock up Wednesday-Sunday

Coup D’Etat just hit. A West Coast strong pale brewed with our friends at Grains of Wrath. Crisp, punchy, and strong enough to turn any Grinchy mood around this time of year [6%]. Draft-only, so if you’re in the mood for something fresh and rebellious, you know what to do

Turkey Week, Faction Style - mailchi.mp/factionbrewing…

Stratasbeer’s return flight just landed. Still high altitude at 6.9%, still that epic hop balance that sends you about 32 miles above Earth’s surface. 😉🙌 West Coast IPA brewed with CY’25 Strata from Coleman and ready to delight the hell out of your senses.

Just another reminder that the view pairs well with everything. 🍻

Fresh hops, fresh pour, fresh attitude. 🌿🍺 Fresh Baled Pils is packed with freshly baled CY'25 whole-cone Mt. Hood hops - brewed and blasted into this collab with Berryessa Brewing. Hops so fresh they should still be on the vine [5.8%].
