OUR BEER:
WET HOP LAZER KITTEN WET HOPPED IPA
This seasonal West Coast IPA is back! Simcoe, Citra, and Mosaic wet hops produce a bright, medium-bodied IPA with notes of lemon, grapefruit, mango, passion fruit, and cantaloupe in addition to subtle hints of peach and lemongrass. Fresh hops provide distinctively grassy, plant-like, and “green” flavor profiles without the bitterness we associate with beers featuring copious amounts of dried hops. (6.0% ABV)
DRINK BEER, SLAY DRAGON WEST COAST IPA
Whether you’re looking for some liquid courage or toasting a personal success, this West Coast IPA is here for you. It’s citrus-y, fruit-y, and pine-y with subtle sweetness and perfect bitterness. Andrew Ritter was one of the founding brewers at Linden Street. He loved family, friends, brewing beer, and rugby. He would laugh deeply and toast, “Drink beer, slay dragon!” When he died at age 31 from ALS, we lost a dear son, brother, friend, and colleague. Andrew, we love and miss you! (6.2% ABV)
ZAPATOS DE BAILE MEXICAN LAGER
Aromas of cereal and corn chip along with subtle hints of water cracker and lemongrass on the finish. Gently sweet and very slightly bitter. Light body and medium carbonation. (5.o% ABV)
LUCKY DOG HAZY IPA
Tropical aromas of guava, papaya, and passion fruit with hints of pineapple & vanilla. On the palate, gentle sweetness, slightly sour, and subtly bitter. (7.0% ABV)
HAPPY CAMPER SAISON
This pale and refreshing classic beer style is dry and mildly bitter, highlighting the expressive yeast character that’s citrusy and spicy. It’s very approachable even to non-beer drinkers. (ABV 5.7%)
SUNDAY NIGHT MAMBO WEST COAST IPA
Grapefruit and passion fruit with some resinous notes and pine on the nose with very slight sweetness and moderate bitterness on the palate. (7.2% ABV)
ONE TWO PUNCH APRICOT CRANBERRY HEFEWEIZEN
Berry and apricot aromas followed by the classic clove and banana notes. Gently sweet, lightly sour, and gently bitter. (5.2% ABV)
IRON AND STEEL IMPERIAL STOUT
Bold, roasted malt notes hit the palate, followed by dry oak and a mild sweetness to round it out. [10% ABV]
DRAGONSLAYER WEST COAST IPA
Story behind the name/beer can label: Every year, we pay tribute to Andrew Ritter, who was our lead brewer when we were still Linden Street Brewing and who succumbed to ALS at the age of 31. This year, we’re releasing “Dragonslayer West Coast IPA,” named with a nod to Andrew’s favorite toast: “Drink beer, slay dragon!” In this IPA, floral notes of honeysuckle, jasmine, and pine lead into a palate that’s lightly sweet with no sourness and an appropriate amount of bitterness. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this beer will be donated to ALS Therapy Development Institute so by purchasing this beer, you further efforts toward treating and curing ALS. In 2022, you helped make OUB a top contributor to Ales for ALS. Thank you for supporting a worthy cause! (6.5% ABV)
EAST BAY NIGHTS BLACK LAGER
2022 Silver Medal winner in the German Black Lager category at the prestigious Great American Beer Festival ®, East Bay Nights is our tribute to the classic German Schwarzbier. Don’t let the color fool you! This beer is light on the palate and packed full of flavor. Notes of coffee and bittersweet chocolate with just a touch of Noble hops round out the roasted malt profile. (5.2% ABV)
NEW OAKLAND GLOW PILSNER
One of our original core beers and voted “Best East Bay Brew” in 2020 by Oakland Magazine readers, this lager is floral on the nose and light in body. This is a crisp, well balanced lager that pairs well with everything from pizza to pate. (4.8% ABV)
PROPER HOOLIGAN ENGLISH MILD **NITRO**
This classic English Mild combines a subtle blend of layered caramel malts with floral British hops to create a smooth, easy drinking beer. Adding inert nitrogen to the beer generates bubbles that cascade down the sides of the glass, creating a smooth, creamy carbonation and a fluffy, white head. (ABV 4.1%)
BAY SHORE FOG HAZY IPA HAZY IPA
Our core Hazy IPA is generously hopped with Comet, Citra, and Chinook giving it rich aromas of lychee and other tropical fruits in addition to a balanced dose of grapefruit and citrus peel. Using the same yeast as our latest Lucky
Dog Hazy IPA and Tropical State of Mind Juicy IPA but treated differently in the brewing process to produce a slightly different thiol expression. (7.5% ABV)
SLEEPING CAR GIANTS BALTIC PORTER
Our Baltic-style Porter is smooth, warming and richly malty with complex dark fruit flavors and a roasted flavor without burnt notes. Our can label pays tribute to Pullman Porters, who formed the first all-Black union and established their West Coast headquarters in Oakland. (9.0% ABV)
