List of San Francisco’s Top Breweries
December 14, 2018
Until we write our full guides to the Bay Area, here is a list of the best breweries in San Francisco, according to Untappd, along with information about hours of operation and food options. This list will be updated frequently, but if you notice anything inaccurate on this list, or if you see that we accidentally left off a brewery that falls within the Untappd score range provided, please kindly let us know and we’ll fix it as soon as we can! We strive to provide the most accurate and up-to-date source of brewery information possible. (For why we chose to sort by Untappd rating, please check out our FAQ.) And, as always, before going to a brewery, check their website or social media to see if they have food trucks on certain days, food delivery options, or irregular hours that day.
Also, be sure to sign up for our newsletter for weekly updates on new brewery hop guides, new research lists for cities across the country, new events on our event calendar, and more! Bay Area residents should check out our research guides to the East Bay and Monterey, and those in California should check out our research guides to Los Angeles and Sacramento. And tell your friends! Cheers!
