CRAFT Beer & Wine

CRAFT is a small shop on Santa Clara Avenue that says it carries more than 450 craft beers, plus a European wine list with a focus on Greek wines and a short spirits shelf. Reviewers point out that you can buy singles of everything, so it's an easy place to build a mixed pack.

On November 4, 2026, CRAFT's Untappd menu listed 13 Original Pattern beers, from Wee Man and Day By Day to The Great Incentivizer coffee stout. Ghost Town is there too, with seven beers including Pena Smrti and Inhume.

It's closed Mondays and closes at 7pm (5pm Sundays), so plan it before an evening taproom stop rather than after. If you're on the island for Faction, it's about ten minutes across Alameda. CRAFT holds occasional in-store tastings under a state tasting permit; otherwise it's retail only. Wherever you buy, check the packaged-on date before the price, especially on anything hoppy, and pick from the cold shelf when there is one.
