RecommendedThe beer was delicious, but it was super disheartening to hear one of the bartenders continuously bash other local breweries while chatting to customers at the bar.
This is my Favorite Sour - never been to the brewery before so this was a BLAST! Totally enjoyed their 5th Anniversary party! Everyone was friendly - the food was delicious and the beer ? What can I say other than FABULOUS!!💕🍻💕
Beer was some of the best I’ve had and I’ve had a lot. Definitely in our top 5 and #1 for sour beers.
Really nice place, had some really good sour beers! Could’ve had more seating and could’ve offered different flight options as there was only 1 option with 3 non interchangeable samples. But overall had a really good expierence here!
It’s a very chill place that has some great sours, a must try for anyone who loves sours in the Bay Area.
I do love sour beer. But now that they serve food, this place is heavenly
I am not a sour beer drinker at all. My son loves them and suggested we try it. Great choice. If ALL sours tasted like these, I’d drink more sours. Most sours make me “pucker up” just by the smell. These were outstanding. Tart but not overwhelming. You actually taste beer instead of “let’s see if we can make this guy pucker up.” Great beer. Great atmosphere. Friendly service. If you can drop in, do it. You won’t be disappointed.
THANK YOU Rare Barrel. Your hospitality and product were beyond words. Well worth the trip, and a solid wrap on our night after a great Oakland As Home opening victory! Thank you for having us. Cheers!
