Local Brewing Co. - San Francisco

Hidden gem of a brewery located near the 4th King Caltain. I wandered in to watch SNF after a long week, and thoroughly enjoyed my time.Highlights:Belgian Bump: excellent, coffee forward belgian golden with Philz CoffeeSomething About Berry: flavor rich berry sour. Refreshing, juicy but well balanced. Unlike some sours, could drink a few and not get sick of it.Pretzel: Classic, not too doughy. Get the mustard-cheese dipService: Shout out to Sierra who recommended all of the above and was friendly, professional and prompt.Environment: clean, relatively quiet with some good background music and comfortable seating.

Great beer and fun place to hang out. The staff is friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back for a beer and some to go beers as well.

Get the Bluxome Black, definitely a great and unique beer.

Local Brewing Company was a highlight of my last trip to San Francisco. I visited one weekday afternoon that happened to be trivia night, so it was packed with happy people. Not participating myself, I sat at the bar away from the action and still had a great time listening. The brewery is in a big old building, but it's been built out with big brewing tanks and lots of red. The beer menu was big and above the bar, lots of delicious sounding beers so I figured I'd try a bunch in flight size. Special thank you for the hospitality to Regan Long, the owner and brewer. Even though I only got to say hello for a moment due to a mutual friend, she covered my beer tab for the evening which made the visit extra special. I stuck mostly with IPAs and lighter beer styles that evening, but it was great to taste the subtle and pronounced differences from one to the next. All the beers are clean and well, flavorful and bright. By this point I was also hungry so I jumped on a pizza special for the evening, which was delicious with the beer. This was one of the most welcoming breweries I visited on this trip, both the staff and clientele. For any beer lover, this is a must-stop and one I look forward to visiting again in the future.

We were doing a little hike out at Lands End and found ourselves in the bar at the Lincoln Park Golf Course and I had a Air Hugs. When the bartender told us Local Brewing Co was here in S.F. it was added to the itinerary.Some really good beers and the food was on point.We’ll be back. This is a little gem here in the SOMA neighborhood.
