Downtown SF's newest happy hour destination is at the mall
"Dubbed the Rec Room, it's East Brother's first taproom outside of the East Bay flagship. The 3,500-square-foot space will eventually have 15 beers on tap, including its popular Bo Pils, a light, crisp Bohemian-style pilsner. The taproom doesn't serve food, but people can bring sustenance from the Metreon food court inside to enjoy with their beer. On Friday, curious San Franciscans filtered into the new space. Some tested out the pool table and dart board."
"Rob Lightner, who co-founded East Brother with his friend Chris Coomber in 2016, never pictured them expanding to the city. While Lightner said he initially had some concerns about the neighborhood, with the nearby San Francisco Centre now 93% empty, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, he was encouraged by recent statistics (the Chronicle and SFGATE are both owned by Hearst but have separate newsrooms)."
East Brother Beer Company opened a 3,500-square-foot taproom, the Rec Room, at the Metreon in downtown San Francisco. The space is the brewery's first taproom outside its East Bay flagship and will eventually feature 15 beers on tap, including the Bo Pils Bohemian-style pilsner. The taproom does not serve food, but patrons can bring items from the Metreon food court. The space includes a pool table, dart board, and outdoor tables overlooking Yerba Buena Gardens. Co-founder Rob Lightner initially had concerns about nearby vacancy rates, but recent statistics were encouraging.
