Top choice in San Francisco
On a chilly evening, squeeze into this narrow, cozy craft-beer bar and give some inventive brews a try. The brewmasters are known for throwing unusual ingredients into their 20-gallon brewing system – yerba maté or yams, for instance – and the Morpho herbal ale is an unusual organic favorite.
The small back patio is warmed by a firepit, and tasty El Porteño empanadas will warm you from the inside.
