Rooted in the East Bay and inspired by the environment we call home, we believe that the work we do should go hand in hand with protecting the land, water, and ecosystems that sustain us all.

That’s why we’ve built sustainability into how we operate — brewing on 100% renewable electricity and committing at least 1% of all sales to environmental nonprofits through our partnership with 1% for the Planet.

Since joining in 2022, we’ve contributed over $200,000 environmental and community organizations.

In 2025, we contributed $82,000 to environmental and community organizations, logged 150+ volunteer hours, and helped plant 1,550+ trees through One Tree Planted.

Beer is just the beginning.


Our work is on-going, check out our impact in 2024.

PARKS SERIES

West Coast IPAs
Inspired by the San Francisco Bay.


Our rotating West Coast IPA series celebrates the landscapes that shape us—from coastlines to canyons. For every 4-pack sold, we donate $1 to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, helping protect the places we love to exploree

EARTHBOUND

Earthbound is our Earth Day beer — an ongoing expression of our commitment to protecting the waterways that make great beer possible. Through partnerships with organizations like Salmon-Safe and California Trout, Earthbound helps support the long-term health of rivers, streams, and habitats across California.

Our partnership with The Marine Mammal Center reflects a shared commitment to protecting marine life along the California coast. Across multiple collaborations, we’ve created special releases that help support the Center’s work rescuing, rehabilitating, and caring for marine mammals in need.

By pairing these efforts with thoughtfully sourced ingredients and community-driven activations, we’ve aimed to connect great beer with a greater sense of place — and with tangible support for the ecosystems and wildlife that make California so special.

PACIFIC POPPY

Pacific Poppy is a West Coast Pale Ale brewed in partnership with Save The Bay to support the protection and restoration of the San Francisco Bay.

Inspired by California’s state flower and the landscapes that define our region, this collaboration donated a portion of Pacific Poppy sales to Save The Bay’s work restoring wetlands, protecting shorelines, and ensuring the Bay remains a thriving place for future generations.
