We stopped into Original Pattern Brewing Company while spending some time around Jack London Square and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The space has a relaxed, welcoming vibe that makes it easy to settle in for a beer. Their tap list had a good range of options, and everything we tried was well done and easy to drink. One thing that made the stop even better was the food situation nearby. There is pizza right next door, which makes it simple to grab something to eat and bring it back with your beer. That setup worked perfectly for us. The staff were friendly, the space felt comfortable, and it is a spot we would happily return to next time we are in the area. read more

Highly recommend ordering the Don Hon pizza and the Outside Voice pizza. The Outside Voice has tots, bacon, caramelized onions, cheddar, mozzarella, garlic purée, scallion, & chipotle crema. The crema is sooooo creamy and flavorful and paired nicely with the pizza. The Outside Voice is top 5 pizzas I've ever had. The Don Ho pizza has pepperoni, pineapple, red sauce, mozzarella, parmesan, & pickled jalapeno. For beer, I enjoyed the Top O' The Mornin'. Had a smooth, coffee inspired flavor; very reminiscent of a more subtle Guinness. The inside is spacious and there's seating upstairs. Such a cool vibe and perfect for large groups. read more

Great atmosphere, live music on the Friday evening I went. My friends and I shared a flight (super aesthetically pleasing), and we were able to find seating pretty easily around 6pm. There was also very easy street parking which was free. After our flight, we ordered a pizza which was delicious paired with our beer, and we ended up getting 2 more beers. My friends and I also bought a pizza from Citizen Pizza Co which was doing a popup to share among three, and it was hitting for some reason!! Such a delicious pizzzaaaa!!!! The brewery also has a "soda machine" that dispensed free water, sparkling water, caffeine, and electrolytes which was really nice especially since we were drinking. Stay hydrated!! I would definitely come back with friends again. read more

They have an easy ordering system where you fill out the flight card, pay for it, and get your drinks shortly after. Cute flight set up - lift slowly or risk spilling! Didn't get a chance to try the food outside but it smelled really good. Definitely coming back in the near future. read more

Went on trivia night and it was such a good time. Place was packed, which says a lot--the energy and ambiance just speak for themselves. Staff was super helpful walking us through a few tastings till we landed on something we actually liked. Good beer, fun vibe, and definitely a spot I'd come back to, especially with friends read more

Service is whatever, not overly friendly or helpful. came here with my boyfriend and his friend. I don't drink beer and they have NO options other than various kinds of beer, or non-alcoholic kombucha. Probably won't be back for that reason. There was live music on a Friday night which I guess is worth mentioning. They also expect you to bus your own table, but ask for tips? The only positive thing in my opinion was the pizza pop up outside but they are a separate business. read more

One of my FAVORITE breweries in the Bay Area, especially for Hazy IPAs. Spacious taproom and an outdoor patio that's perfect for relaxing with friends. The beer selection is outstanding, featuring a variety of IPAs, sours, pales, and lagers. Each pint is a revelation, bursting with flavor and crafted with care. Love trying all the different hops they use! Whether you're a beer aficionado or just looking for a great place to unwind, Original Pattern Brewing Company is a must-visit. read more

Original Pattern Brewing is a fantastic brewery located near Jack London. The inside of the brewery is spacious with 2 levels of seating, providing plenty of room for guests. However, the upstairs area was quite hot and humid when I came, even with the windows open, as there was steam coming out of one of the fermentation tanks. There was plenty of seating available when my group visited on a Friday evening around 7 pm. They have live music happening every Friday evening, so you can check their website to see who will be performing. There was a live jazz band on the day we came. If you're hungry, you can order pizza from Citizens pizza outside to enjoy with your beer. I had already eaten before coming so I didn't get any food. As someone who isn't a big fan of beer, I decided to split a flight of 6 beers with a friend for $18. The flight came with a cute holder, but you have to walk carefully to avoid spilling, especially when going up the stairs. You write down your orders for the flight and keep the sheet afterwards. It was really nice to have that to reference as we tried the beers, so we knew exactly what we were trying. We got a variety to try. My favorites were The Path to Somewhere (German pilsner) and the Outer Realm (hazy IPA). Overall, Original Pattern Brewing offers a great atmosphere and a wide selection of beers. I would recommend this brewery to anyone looking for a chill night out in the Jack London area. read more

I found this brewery in 2024 when I came to listen to live music for the evening. I sampled a beer called space balls that was as close to Guinness Stout on tap as you can get and it was outstanding spoiler alert I had three. I also ordered a pepperoni pizza and added extra items and Brussels sprouts. The pizza was so gooey and crispy and good also the sprouts were so blackend and flavorful. I keep also coming back every few months because the staff are amazing, I have a few favorites. Check out their website to see who's playing there and pick up a six pack on the ways home. Great energy and vibe. Interesting crowd....older but chill, business types, hipster, young millennials with a relaxed attitude. read more

Original Pattern Brewing Company - Me and my attitude..... - Breweries Near Me - Oakland, California

The craft beer scene in and around Oakland has improved in the 18 years I have worked downtown. While there weren't many options within walking distance, opting to drive or BART to the city for good craft. Over the years the scene has improved and Original Pattern is one of those craft breweries that's within walking distance from my employer. OP is located in a brick building on the corner of 4th and Harrison, next to the Posey Tube vent structure. The brewery is open, with multi-floor seating, as well as outside seating around the building. The bar backs up to the brewing floor, where large stainless steel fermenters are visible. The current tap rotation is posted on the wall, as you wait in line, as well as on small clipboards around the bar. OP sells cans and merchandise up front as you walk in. I'll be honest, I was not initially a fan of OP, but it's become one of my go to breweries in the area. The staff are helpful and insightful, as well as friendly, this too goes for those who frequent the establishment. I've sampled over 50 of their beers, sticking mainly to clear beer, lagers, pilsners, IPAs and sours. Been very satisfied with the different styles on taps, the hops used and the diverse flavors brewed. The only negative thing I have to say is having to pay tax on top of an $8 beer or any beer served at OP. Obviously, its not enough to stop me from frequenting the establishment. The other great part of OP, is Citizen Pizza is on site, serving up fresh pies and food. Make for an enjoyable afternoon/evening after work. You can see my review for CP on Yelp as well. Overall, I can't give them anything less than five stars. The location, the beer, the staff, the pizza. Keep up the good work! read more

I came here specifically because their beer is consistently amazing. BIG fan. Pleasantly surprised the inside is much nicer than your average brewery. Inviting, warm, friendly, nice decor, and upstairs is really pretty with the windows!! The pizza baking at the food truck smelled sooooo good (we'd already eaten so we didn't try it). The staff was super nice and gave me extra coasters to take home They also sell really nice merch!! I totally failed and forgot to buy some of the cans to bring home, so it looks like I have a great excuse to go back! wooo!! HIGHLY recommend. read more

Original Pattern Brewing was a brewery I had on my "to try" list and I am glad that getting an experience with their beer came together recently. The beer we had was Bean Me Up! which was a porter which it was great to have. It has coffee flavor with dry and bitter qualities to it which makes a nice complexity to it and very infectious to drink. Rich and full this porter is perfect to have by a toasty fire as the rain comes down or as the snow flies outside. read more

Original Pattern Brewing Company - The delightful Bean Me Up! Porter from Original Pattern Brewing. - Breweries Near Me - Oakland, California

Awesome brewery boasting fun beers in a cool space! They had a pretty good variety of brews with 14 beers on tap. They hit most styles from light to dark. No sours when we went in, but they did have a gose. They also had some others available in the can, though they were for to-go consumption only. We came here on a Saturday afternoon shortly after opening and the downstairs was pretty packed. Lucky for us, they also had a spacious upstairs area with plenty of seating. They also had a few spots outside, though the inside seating was more comfortable. There's plenty of free street parking near by, most of it in the 2-4 hour range. Don't come this way often, but would come back here for sure. Would love to see them expand to other areas of the Bay too! read more

Visited Pattern on a Friday night with a girlfriend--such a great vibe! Live music and easy parking were a nice touch. The beer was delicious. I got the sour and my friend got the hazy. We were both happy w our beers. The pizza hit the spot. It was the perfect way to wind down after a long work week. Friendly staff and plenty of seating made it even better. Definitely coming back! read more

We have never had trouble getting parking and it's all street parking. We sat upstairs on the couches and it was so comfy. I love komboucha and was happy with the "Niether Here Nor There." Being from Santa Cruz, I loved the ""Totally Tubular." Yummy hazy. And YES, I will be back! Great stop before dropping off at the airport read more

First time here! First off, the vibes were amazing. I went on a weekend night and there were plenty of people. However, the wait was minimal as there was plenty of staff ready to help! There are many seating options, both upstairs and downstairs. The night I went, there was a live band playing; they were really good! Pricing was expected and they had plenty of beers. Restrooms were clean. I believe there were two! Parking is street and slightly competitive. Would come back again! read more

Solid beers! They've got lots of IPAs from traditional and hazy, usually a sour or two, a couple pales, and a lager round out the draft menu. They've also got a couple coolers full of Togo beers, which is my favorite. Nothing like stopping by here on your way to an A's game with a 4 pack of OP to tailgate with. They've got pizza too! I haven't tried it yet, but it looked and smelled nice. I'll get some next time. The staff is always super cheerful and ready to give you an opinion on a beer to get. The inside is industrial - it's a brewery - and they've got a nice outdoor seating patio which is awesome on warm days. read more

Nice place, just okay. Good selection of beers, parking is tough. No tv screens for sports

Probably one of my favorite breweries in the Oakland area. I first came for a pop-up they had last summer with a Taiwanese dumpling spot, so the mix of dumplings and a carousel of beer just warmed my heart! Great local eatery food truck pop-up featured every time they're open (and I think they're pretty conscious of having a vegan option as well). I'm a big fan of their samplers and rotating drafts - hazy IPAs and sours tend to be my standouts. There's enough seating downstairs, outside on their patio, or upstairs which feels more loungey and private (I can definitely just chat with family or friends and log onto Wifi on a laptop here to work lol). Dibble Dabble (papaya, cantaloupe, citrus) Hazy IPA, Down the Rabbit Hole (diesel, pine, grapefruit) Hazy IPA and Currant Capitulation Sour (black currant, blackberry, raspberry) were standout during my last visit! read more

Just enjoyed a "beer-cation" up in Oakland where we stopped into Original Pattern. We were only going to pop in for a round, but ended up staying for a couple hours which included indulging in some pizza from the vendor outside. We really loved the ambiance of this space and the welcoming staff. Bonus that even though their to-go cans were bundled in 4-packs, you're allowed to break them apart and make your own mixed pack! The beer quality was great too! My stand out favorites were the Crosshatch Kolsch and Such is Life Hoppy Saison. We ended up taking some cans and merch too because we enjoyed this brewery so much. We can't wait to revisit whenever we're back in the east bay! read more

On a recent visit to the Bay Area, I had the pleasure of meeting a long-time online friend in person for the first time. This is his favorite brewery so it was our first stop and was grateful to have come here. I said up front this was a place I would try every beer on tap that day, and I did (flight size of course). It's in an old brick building with high ceilings, a cool loft above the door, outdoor seating, and pizza ovens. He introduced me to the bartender Kat, who was fantastic throughout our entire visit. One point that steals the eye is the rainbow collage of old can releases along the one wall. We opted to sit outside in his favorite spot and chatted about beer. All of them were delicious, unique and well made. I especially loved the wooden circular flight holders. His family eventually joined us as well, always nice to have family friendly breweries. Prices are great for the quality. I look forward to visiting again in the future and trying whatever is new. Thanks for the fun visit! read more

Great beer. Friendly people. Perfect setting. Indoor and outdoor seating, pretty easy parking. The best thing about OP is the range of beers. Andy, the Brewmaster, is from New Zealand and brings some twists you don't see everywhere else. I prefer clear IPAs and my friends like sours and cloudy IPAs and we can all go to OP and find exactly what we're looking for. They usually have a great pizza vendor we really enjoy as well. Just great beer in a cool vibe. Put this place on your list for sure. JLS has a thriving beer scene. Get here! read more

Kind of strangely quiet considering I went in a Friday night. Interesting choices if beers, I went for a peekaboo, loved its ruby color and enjoyed the taste. I know very little about beer beside how to drink it and enjoy it. Bar staff were very pleasant and efficient. A drink will cost you around $10 Inc taxes and tip. Live entertainment was present but nothing to write home about. Sitting areas are varied and all pleasant. read more

We stopped in for beers on a recent Sunday while visiting Oakland...it was so great! Here is what we liked: - Not a ton of seating inside, but we scored one of the primo booths! - The flight was $16 and held 6 5-oz tasters. - Great selection of beers, including several Hazy's. - Loved the beers! Bottom line: I'd go back anytime...but, I don't live near Oakland. I'd better check and see if they're available at BevMo... read more

Original Pattern is a solid brewery. Even though I'm not into beer, my bf is and he enjoys their IPAs. I got a sour and enjoyed it as well. There is indoor (two stories) and outdoor seating available. There is pizza if food is needed. If you can't make it to Oakland to check them out, I've seen their beer at local grocery stores in Sacramento (Nugget). read more
