This is my favorite brewery on the peninsula! It's pretty small but it's quaint both with indoor and outdoor seating. It's a little unsuspecting as far as location but there's a good amount of parking. So onto the beer.. mind you I'm not a huge beer enthusiast BUT I love sours and I usually struggle to find breweries that offer more than a couple. Blue oak usually has a good amount of them too (maybe 4-6 depending) and are super tasty!!Service is great and people are always coming around to make sure tables/barrels are clean. There's also food trucks on the weekend and sometimes even some live music! Overall good vibes, but sometimes it could get a little much with kids running around.. that's my own personal opinion though- I'm not huge on kids being allowed at breweries *shoulder shrug*

Blue Oak was one of our regular spots when we lived on the peninsula. I haven't come nearly often enough since moving to San Jose. They have the perfect formula for a brewery - from the beer selection and variety of indoor/outdoor seating, to the live music and food trucks. They're also dog-friendly! And we never have a hard time finding parking between the small back lot, side parking and street parking. Staff are super friendly and knowledgable, and they're always happy to make a recommendation, even amidst the busiest of services. I was almost exclusively a sour beer drinker for a while, and I really appreciated their diversity of sours on tap. My friends who prefer hazies and IPAs also enjoy their menu. They've always had a food truck onsite when we've gone on weekends. Seating does fill up, so we try to get there early to get a covered outdoor table.

Every town has a few local breweries and a lot of times they're kind of interchangeable. A bunch of IPA's and some lighter beers are the standard fare. Well, Blue Oak here kicks that trend in the ass. Hard! They rock the beer board with some serious Belgian contenders such as Brother Brad Belgian Blonde and the Father Francois Belgian Quad and no less than 5 sours!! And of course there are several IPA options for the bitter crew as well. Plenty of lighter beers as well including an excellent dark lager. Can't say enough about this place, except "I can't wait to go back"

Eamon puts on a great comedy show here. I was surprised at the turnout . I think there was supposed to be more but heck I was surprised there was as many as there was. They have some classic arcade games here. They brought back memories. My favorite drink here is the blue claw. It's not weak like those lame white claws.

Their flights are so good. The beer is so fresh and delicious and I've come here many times just for it. I recommend the flight so you can taste more beer. The only issue is that parking can be a mess.The atmosphere is wonderful with the food trunks, people, and dogs everywhere. I recommend this place but maybe come early so you don't struggle with parking. The service is pretty slow though and the owner was a character last we went.

We went back again on a warm Sunday afternoon. This place is PACKED. Inside and out. It's just such a perfect outdoor seating for a beautiful day like this in the California winter. Having a beer or two over a casual conversation with friendly strangers sharing the same table. What's more relaxing than that?! Our dog babies always make new friends there. And enough space for them to totally stretch out and enjoy watching ppl around. It's a huge bonus for us this place is so super dog friendly. Even for inside. Which makes it one of the few places we can take our dogs and hang out even on a rainy day. Will definitely go back. Oh almost forgot to say, it's a brewery place after all. I'm not even a beer person but he is. But I can still have a sour beer (their specialty thing) which actually tastes good. While he's tasting all kinds of creative stuff they have. But me and my dogs will be happily tagging along.

Yes. Its the right address on GPS. Definitely looks and feels like it's shady and you are lost. But it's at the end. Opens up to parking on the right. Two entries, an actual store fromt and warehouse opening in the back. Taco truck sucked hard. Liked the first two Hazy and the goddess sour. Open space in the back so kids can run around and dog friendly.

This spot was recommended to me for sours as that's my favorite style beer. Was super excited to come and see they had 5 sours on the menu. Sadly the sours were quite sweet and tasted a bit more like sugar bombs than the sours I know and love. If you like a sweet sour, these will be great for you, but if you're looking for a tart pucker your lips sour, this might not be what you're looking for. I normally go for a flight, but since my boyfriend and I wanted to try the same beers, it was actually cheaper to order 4 of the 16oz pours and share rather than get our own flights. We ordered two to start, and after realizing how sugary they were, we ended up ordering 10oz pours to share the next two. The next two were a bit more sour than the first two we ordered, but still super sweet. The berry ones didn't have a ton of noticeable flavor, couldn't point out any of the listed fruits really. The tropical ones seemed to be a little better at showing the different flavor profiles listed. They offer flights and a few different pour sizes. Nice to see that they offer large pours of sours because a lot of places don't seem to do that. We came on a weekend afternoon and they had a food truck outside. There was a bunch of seating both in and outside. We easily found a spot on what seemed like a fairly crowded day. This place is dog and kid friendly, lots of both were present when we were there. Service was super friendly as well.

We visited for pico bbq pop up and had some beers to go along with it! It's super dog friendly here and they have shaded patio and indoor space! Their beer menu is mostly sours and IPAs with options for flights. Their POG sour is the best sour I've ever had! It's super fruity and tangy without too much acidity. Prices are also super reasonable, with options for sizes. Not sure how often Pico BBQ sets up here, but a must-try if they're here!! We had their three meat plate and all the meats were so good - especially the brisket was amazingly tender and flavorful. Even their sides were so unique and tasty. Everyone here was so friendly and chill; overall great vibes and fun space.
