"Anchor Brewing recently reopened their massive outdoor taproom in Potrero Hill - so if you’re looking for a place to grab a beer with your roommates, a date, or a third-tier friend you haven’t seen in 13 months, this is a good option. They’re reservations-only right now, so make yours here." - julia chen 1

"The approximately 2-acre property at 495 and 501 De Haro Street, formerly home to Anchor's brewing operations and taproom, is also for sale. Anchor announced its sudden closure in July due to financial losses. A group of former employees are interested in purchasing it to reopen as a worker-owned cooperative." - Lauren Saria
"Anchor may be owned by Sapporo these days, but it’s still a big deal in beer history — it’s the oldest brewery in San Francisco, going back 125 years, and it’s a pioneer of steam beer, also known as California common beer. Tours of their art deco factory back by reservation, and, of course, there’s always Anchor Public Taps, the big taproom across the street where you can get a frothy pour of that signature steam lager." - Lauren Saria, Eater Staff
"San Francisco's oldest brewery is no longer independently owned after it was purchased by Sapporo, but it's still a crown jewel of local brewing with a long, unique history. You might not be able to take a brewery tour to gaze at the beautiful copper mash tuns, but at least you can still drink the goods — in addition to classics like their steam beers and porters, there are seasonal releases to try." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
