Federation Brewing
Federation Brewing seeks ways to make our community stronger through our passion for social justice,
Federation Brewing is an Oakland craft brewery with an up-cycled shipping container beer garden outside and a quirky indoor taproom. In every possible way Federation Brewing seeks ways to make our community stronger through our passion for social justice, peace, philanthropy, love and kindness. Our diverse beer lineup includes experimental IPAs, hazy IPAs, sours, dark beers and even unique beers l
We are proud as hell to announce that Federation Brewing has been acquired by Dokkaebier , an Oakland-based, Asian-owned and influenced brewery that's making some of the best, most creative beers around.
But don't fret! Federation isn't going anywhere! You'll still be able to enjoy all our beers on draft, in cans, and at the taproom, which will be undergoing a bit of rebranding in the coming months.
We've been so honored to be a part of Oakland's brewing community for these past 9 years. Being surrounded by all the love, hard work, and Town spirit has given us joy in the good times, comfort in the tough ones, and pride throughout.
So thank you to everybody who's been a part of our journey so far, and a warm welcome to all who will be a part of it in the future. We're excited for what's next.
Don't be a party pooper, come to our bar for an Irish Stout and let's get sham-rockin'! 🍀🍺

They are Oakland. Us; are The Bay and they are Homies-based artists. This project reveals our disorder to the outside walls of funded bent art galleries. The homies residencies drive the multidimensional estyles of artwork and prediction. Each exhibition is a leap over the context of uniformity which successfully invests in to Us.
