RateBeer Brew Tour Guide's Comments
This son-of-Cato's (same owners) is located in Oakland's cool Rockridge district. Expect the same great food, service and dedication to the West Coasts finest brews.

Empty at 7pm on a Sunday evening. Odd crowd, and what seems like a Macro place (both beers (boddingtons, Stella and PBR) and the people drinking them). Three things worth having on tap: Pliny, Death and Taxes, and Stone 12. Didn’t try the food but it looked edible.

Cool place. Good vibe. Great beer selection (always have Russian River Pliny on tap). Near BART (subway stop). Good comfort food.

There is a good selection of microbrews available on tap, mainly from the Californian North Coast and Pacific Northwest. Seemed like they were a little understaffed at first, but didn’t have to wait super long. Enjoyed the wall art of old (i.e. 50’s) beer ads.
