HolyCraft Brewing Company Opens Taproom in North Beach | Eater SF

"After roughly four years as a contract brewery, HolyCraft Brewing Company finally has its own taproom and production brewery at 787 Broadway in the former Sip Bar & Lounge space in North Beach. Owners Steve Seto and Phil Fabian — whose cans Bay Area beer drinkers may already recognize from Bevmo — will continue to brew at larger facilities like Hermitage in San Jose to meet canned demand, while the new production space lets them experiment with more unusual recipes for a more varied taproom lineup; the current flagships are a Belgian ale, a blonde, and a Japanese rice lager with yuzu. The spacious taproom has a moody feel with pitch-black walls, geometric wood tables, and a large impressionist-style painting of the Golden Gate Bridge; artists Grace Ding, Fellipy Costa, Gioi Tran, and Daniel Boza contributed to both the interior and exterior. Outside there's a painted HolyCraft logo with life-size angel wings for a prime selfie station, taking a cue from recent festivals and experiential “museums.” The taproom is open Wednesday through Friday from 4 p.m. to midnight and weekends from noon to midnight." - Janelle Bitker
