Oakland United Beerworks Oakland United Beerworks is a collaborative gathering place where we unite and inspire our community

Oakland is and always has been a beer town; a place where hard-working people would gather together to enjoy locally brewed, fresh beer. As the local population grew, Oakland was affectionately referred to as the "Milwaukee of the West" for its numerous neighborhood-based breweries. Founded in 2009 as Linden Street Brewery, we became the first community-based production brewery in Oakland since Golden West Brewery closed in the 1950s. In 2017, following the sale of our building on Linden Street to a new developer, we moved our operations to the waterfront Jack London District and rebranded as Oakland United Beerworks. With the support of a team of dedicated Oakland craft beer enthusiasts, Oakland United is proud to continue the great beer brewing tradition in Oakland.

GAME 7 WATCH PARTY
We're setting up a dedicated viewing area for our Valkyries fans to come together, cheer on our team, and enjoy the game with their Oakland community!

THINGS THAT CREEP FUNDRAISER
Our mezzanine and outdoor areas are getting taken over by some seriously cool creatures! Join us for an evening of creepy, crawly fun featuring:
- Live reptiles & hands-on animal encounters
-Reptile Photo Booth
-Exclusive reptile merch
-Raffle prizes & more!

Best of all, it's FREE to attend! We're raising funds to support Things That Creep and their incredible hands-on science programs in Oakland Public Schools. Come meet some amazing animals and help bring science to life for Oakland students!

Our friends at Lotus Delight will be popping up from 12–8pm, serving everyone's favorite Asian fusion dishes all day long.

Just a quick heads up, we’ll be temporarily closing the taproom from 3–4pm to give our reptilian guests time to settle in, set up their interactive spaces, and get our Valkyries viewing area ready. We'll reopen at 4pm for all the festivities!

Saturday, October 31 | 4–9pm | FREE ADMISSION

And, of course, GO VALKYRIES!!

Meet Mexican Blanket, our newest seasonal Mexican Hot Chocolate Imperial Stout (8% ABV)!

First brewed as a taproom exclusive last year, it was such a smash hit that we had to bring it back!

Aged on TCHO Ecuadorian cocoa nibs with cinnamon and ancho chiles, this bold sipper brings a little heat, a touch of spice, and hints of smokiness, all wrapped up in a decadent chocolate finish.

Big, dark, and boozy- best enjoyed fireside with a plate of mole. Cozy up with a pour at the taproom or grab a 4-pack for your own fireside nights.

Available now on draft and in 4-packs to go!

IT’S BACK.

Our Migration West Coast IPA (7%) has landed back in the taproom! Hopped with Eclipse and Enigma, this returning favorite brings aromas of pineapple, black currant, grapefruit, cantaloupe, and apricot.

Inspired by the birds traveling the Pacific Flyway between Alaska and Patagonia each spring and fall, Migration celebrates a little Oakland magic: Lake Merritt’s role as a place to rest along the journey. Home to more than 100 types of birds throughout the year, our urban oasis deserves a toast.

Available NOW on draft and in 4-packs to go!

Oakland B**r Club Members: Still have your monthly 50% off one 4-pack discount? Welcome Migration home with a fresh pack for just $10! Download the Oakland United B**rworks app to learn more about the B**r Club and its perks.

Come roost for a pint and take a little Migration home today.

Your fall favorite is back!

For everyone who was super bummed when we sold out of Redwood Red Ale, the wait is officially over.

This malty, delicious 5.5% ABV red ale brings notes of cinnamon, licorice/anise, caramel, honey, grapefruit, and walnut. There's so much to love about this b**r.

Back on draft in the taproom and in 4-packs to go. Come reunite with an old favorite!
