Fort Point Lower Haight

"Black Sands, Lower Haight Duboce by Amy Young. This modern brewery feels like a bright, airy cafe by day and a classy cocktail bar by night. They have a few fresh house made beers on tap that rotate frequently, a selection of delicious cocktails, and some solid California inspired bites on the menu. If homebrewing’s your jam, check out the beer supply shop next door where you can get the recipes for all their beer or take a brewing class."

"Nearly two years after the owners of Lower Haight brewpub Black Sands sold the business to Fort Point Beer Company, and six months after it was shuttered for a massive renovation, the doors at 701 Haight Street have reopened, now simply called Fort Point." - Eve Batey

"A weeklong special at the Lower Haight’s Black Sands featuring six beers that offer a a fun tasting lesson: All six 'Single Malt and Single Hop' ales are made with 100 percent Cascade hops, but all the base malts are different." - Caleb Pershan

"The burger at this neighborhood brewpub is pure, sweet Americana, with two smashed patties, special sauce, pickles, and lots of oozy American cheese on a squishy bun. The meat is especially juicy, but with a nice crunchy char from the smash." - Stefanie Tuder, Ellen Fort, Caleb Pershan
