This was a nice place to watch the football game on a Sunday. It wasn't too crowded and there was plenty of seating inside and out for everyone. The inside is spacious and clean and the service is quick at the bar. I just ordered the Imperial Stout which I really liked! I found it nice and bold in flavor. I would definitely order it again! :) This bar was located in the Mission area and there is street parking around the area. The surrounding area is quiet and there's not too much going on around the bar. I would definitely come back with friends for a quiet catch up session with drinks. I liked the atmosphere and the fact that there were a few games for entertainment. Watching the game was also a fun highlight to the experience even though the SF team loss.
Baltimore ravens bar in the mission! Solid beer on tap and hot dogs for 3 dollars. There is also Mezcla on the outside grill making additional bites for purchase. The bbq pork grilled cheese definitely hit the spot. Very laid back vibes and allows dogs!
Been on my to-do list. Inviting roles doors opening on to a decent stretch of an otherwise somewhat sketchy part of the Mission -- it's sort of a bridge between the polished parts of Valencia street and the islands of culinary surprise doting the blocks between Mission and Potrero. Famous beer list. Heavy on IPA. Sigh. I'm over those. So I tried the English brown and opted to sit outside away from sports fans and in e nice breeze. All aspects were thoroughly enjoyable, especially the view fog rolling in over Portola drive in the distance.
We love a good brewery and when we arrived this looked fantastic- great music, fun vibe and communal tables with a great crowd of people. But for me- I was not a fan though granted some of these gripes are personal preferences. One - they had a food truck outside -and the smell I hate most in the world is cooking oil - and that is all I could smell! It was strong, pungent and nails on a chalkboard to me - I wanted to get the heck out of there before my clothes smelled like the bar!! It was just disgusting!! Second I love a good IPA - and these were not good IPAs at all! If you had put my beer in front of me and asked me to name the style - I would have not been able to identify this as an IPA - did not care for mine and left it and did not care for my husbands either! It was also really cold inside so for me just not a fun experience! Others seemed to be having a blast so it's definitely got fans just not me!!
TLDR: If you like beer and live anywhere in the City, this is a must check out at for either a) a stop when on a bar crawl in the Mission b) a stop on an SF brewery crawl OR c) a warm, sunny afternoon any given day of the year ("warm" and "sunny" being the key words here). If you love beer and are visiting the City, this is a must stop. Longer: From their website: "We are throwing fastballs here. High quality ingredients. A wide array of beer styles made true to form. We welcome all people to the brewery and look forward to serving you." One of the co-owners has been home brewing since the early aughts (maybe even late 90s*shrug*), and Standard Deviant as we know it opened their doors in 2016, and at the time they were one of ~20 craft breweries in the city. I drank plenty of PBR and Natty (light, and, regrettably, Ice) back back back in the college day, but toward the end (~2009) and until just recently (2023), removed beer and anything tangential to gluten from my diet. Now that I've figured out I have Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency and my boyfriend loves (Mexican and craft) beer, SD has been on the top of our list to check out. Boyfriend saw the nitro horchata at Brass Tax in Hayes Valley on Halloween, but we didn't have a chance to try it, so when a friend wanted to meet for a drink halfway between ours and theirs, Standard Deviant was it! We ventured here on a random Friday in early Nov. Inside wasn't wall to wall bodies, but there did seem to be some sorta office gathering that took up a handful of the long tables on one side of the room. Brace yourself for more of that over the holiday season. Even without that large group, there were plenty of groups inside, and one of ~6-10 outside. 14th isn't the best street for...enjoying the scenery, so don't expect sweeping city views. Also, don't be surprised if traffic is absolutely bonkers flying by you. If city sounds aren't for you, pull up a table inside. Or better yet, check out their Ferry Building location (once it opens... soon?) This is an ~order at the bar, open or close your tab, go on your way~ typa establishment. No exaggeration on their "wide array of beer styles made true to form" statement. Boyfriwnd sampled the nitro horchata to ensure the flavor profile was good enough to consume in a large quantity. I ended up getting a flight of IPAs because I generally like them (esp Hazy IPAs), thought it'd be fun to compare / contrast, and def get analysis paralysis when considering so many options. Good thing Boyfriend also likes IPAs, because even the Hazy was not my cup of tea. Oops. Another good thing: I really love the nitro horchata! So we ended up switching and we were both happy campers. I'm tempted to get a whole jug of the nitro horchata... but there's no way I'd drink it in time for it to not get flat. Once thing that would have helped me; one of those lil wooden paddle flight holder thingamabobs + somewhere to write which glass is which. I'm a visual learner, so telling me the info goes in one ear and out the other (LOL). I guess it's a good thing I didn't like any of the beers + we know well enough they darker the IPA, the higher the alc content, and could deduce which was which. We noticed there was someone selling tacos(?) inside+to the right of the bar. IIRC, 2 basic tacos out of a hot plate for $10. We hadn't eaten, but opted for waiting to grab fresherish, hot food at our next stop. I need to find out when they expect to stop brewing the nitro horchata and try to get back for another pint before I lose the chance!
Looking for a variety of alcoholic contents in your beer? From less than 4% to double-digit alcohol contents - Standard Deviant has it all! On top of this, nice/clean bathrooms, friendly staff, dog friendly, indoor/ outdoor seatings. Friendly customers..oh my.. what more can you ask for?? Bring your own food? Yes, check! Tacos available in weekends? Yes, check again! Standard deviant checks all the boxes! We will be back...again and again and again.. see you there!
In my old neighborhood of the Mission is a bit different from other parts and other sides within the Mission District in San Francisco. On 14th street within a block away on each side of Mission street there were some movies filmed like the classic movie" 48 Hrs " with the Woodward alley scene and the movie" Blue Jasmine" in the apartment scenes on South Van Ness and along with other movies shot nearby. The neighborhood was quite the street cinema in different genres of everyday life with many different soundtracks. One place to congregate and grab a drink today on 14th street is the Standard Deviant Brewing. This place has lots of seating and is a good spot to grab a drink and hangout and watch a game with lots of televisions or play drinking games ( with board games). This is not officially a sports bar but has the environment and the space for almost any occasion . I came here for a private launch party event. Standard Deviant Brewing offers a variety of beers which they brew in house with big brewery tanks in the back of the bar. Since October is almost over I decided to try their Oktoberfest beer which had a smooth taste. They also have Barrel aged beer like the Nitro Bourbon Stout and the Wine Farmhouse Saison . My old neighborhood always had flavor with the drink, food and people bringing San Francisco a different ingredient The Mission is different all around inside and outside the standard deviant
Really dig this brewery in the Mission. They def nailed it on the vibes and welcoming all types of people. Beer was really solid, had 3 different beers and was really diggin them all. Clean bathrooms, clean location and happy staff. That means a lot!
After exploring the Valencia area and having dinner, I rushed to get to try Standard Deviant Brewing before they closed. Thankfully right off the bat I could tell I was going to love the place. There were a group of guys blocking the entrance, I asked what was going on and they said an incident happened and they were making sure another guy didn't come back. Everyone including them was super welcoming and nice that evening, including the bartender Adrianna. I stood at the wood bar (the place is a tree and target theme) and ordered a couple beers. The place was welcoming and cozy with soft twinkle lights yet has high ceilings. The decor is mostly pop culture. The view behind the bar is the brewery itself. They have a lot of canned selections to go and you can make your own 6 pack. I was thankful once I was there I was not rushed to leave, she stayed open for everyone still enjoying the beer. I had a flight and tried all the lighter styles. A group of guys next to me bought a round of kolsch for everyone in mini stanges, the traditional German glass for the beer although smaller and done as a shot. It was a super fun serving method I haven't seen anywhere else. I absolutely loved my visit and the beer; thanks to the bartender and other customers for making it a highlight of my recent trip.
A fun place to hang out with a nice selection of beers! They have food as well and board/card games . Plenty of space to hang out and catch up. Also really loved the different art they had hanging on the walls all around.
I was attending an event nearby and was pleased to find Standard Deviant Brewing right across the street. It doesn't look like much from outside, but it has so much character inside, a nice and spacious layout, plenty of seating (picnic style tables and wooden barrels inside, as well as outdoor parklet seating), several TV's, quirky wall art, and shuffleboard, which we enjoyed playing as we sipped on a couple beers. We tried the Tree People IPA (recommended by the bartender over Naytorade) and Nitro Horchata Cream Ale. Both were pretty good, and we would have stayed to try more if we had more time before our event. They don't have a whole lot of beers on their menu, but the quality of what we tried was decent. And the venue has a nice laid-back atmosphere, with good service. I'd certainly return.
It's a fun little spot to get beer, they have a decent selection and plenty of large tables for groups. Also, keep in mind that a flight of beer is not your normal flight size, it is legit full pours. We got to try a lot on the menu but my personal favorite was the horchata beer.

We came here around 6pm on a Saturday and it was very lively in here! They had games that you can play at the table and they had a taco vendor there selling tacos if you are hungry! We tried the rose cider and I think it was the oatmeal stout and both were good! I am not much of a beer person so the rose cide4 was great! read more
We were in San Francisco and looking for a brewery to stop in for a little while. We decided on Standard Deviant Brewing, and we're glad we did. Here's what we noticed: - Great vibe when we arrived...Busy with lots of people, but still some seating at the large number of picnic tables. There's also some outside patio seating in the front. - My wife and I split a flight of beer, which they provide in three 6 ounce pours. We especially liked their Hazy IPA, but the Oktoberfest was very good too. The bartender said their Kolsch is a bit of a classic, and we liked it too, but it wasn't a stand out to us. I later got a 10 ounce pour of their IPA and felt like that was the best of all. The best part is that you couldn't go wrong with any of the beers. - We got chips and guacamole from the taco truck guy located inside next to the bar...You pay by cash, and we got a big container of chips and a humongous couple of scoops of guac for $9. It was just what we needed to go with our beers! Bottom line: if we lived in the area, we'd go back to Standard Deviant for sure! read more

Standard Deviant almost feels like a neighborhood dive but with a spacious feel. From the outside you don't expect much but the inside opens into a welcome brewery with lots to offer. Most of the menu is fairly standard (no pun intended) with all the staples - a lager, stout, heff, a few IPAs, etc. The creativity comes out in their aged section. Try the cognac brown ale or their imperial stout to see where they're pushing flavor. The staff is friendly and happy to help you select something or welcome you in if you're new. read more
I stopped by here a couple weekends ago to get a few beers with some friends. We really enjoyed the beers and had a great time. There is a lot of both indoor and outdoor seating here. When we arrived it was pretty busy but we were still able to find a spot to sit. We enjoyed a variety of their beers while playing some of the games they provide on their game shelf. We also played shuffle board and enjoyed taking a few photos in the photo booth prior to heading out. It was dog friendly as well! I'd recommend checking them out and imbibing in some of their craft brews and enjoying whatever food vendor they have for the day! read more

Friendly crew, laid back atmosphere and great spot for game night. The empanadas were a nice addition to the brews, too! read more
[TLDR: Plenty of food and drink options, warm rugged ambiance, and plenty to keep you busy.] This place is a catch, plain and simple. Like most breweries I've been to (especially in the city) seating is mostly communal on long wooden picnic tables. We rocked up about 2 hours before last call and still had plenty of room for our group of 9 to sit, stand, and socialize. Aside from TVs everywhere you look, the brewery had its own vault of board and card games, which we jumped on at first sight. I was tempted to grab some tacos from the side booth but went for their chips and guac instead, which was pretty tasty. The Hazy IPA and Naytorade IPA were the poisons I picked for the night, and both were great. The Hazy lived up to its name while the Naytorade flirted with citrus noticeably more. The guys behind the bar were super chill and made our experience one I'm keen to relive! read more

Great beers. Great staff. Chill spot. Delicious taco pop up. What more does one need in a local brewery? read more
Visited this place for our friends' pre-wedding get together tonight. I don't drink so I was glad they had non-alcoholic beverages such as ginger beer and root beer - the ginger beer was pretty tasty. And for food, we got tacos! They gave us 2 options: fried fish or chicken, and I had to try both! The fried fish tacos were good. I could eat them all day. The fried fish was flavorful and went really well with the salsa and other taco toppings. The chicken was good too. It was nicely charred but wasn't dry, and it was flavorful. We also got chips and guac, which were not only tasty but gorgeous - they used 2 colors for the tortilla chips: classic corn yellow and red. They were gorgeous. The ambience inside felt relaxing and nice. We had fun. read more

We went here recently for a quick drink and a bite before a show down the street. They had a BBQ pop up nearby, since they don't actually have food at the brewery. There was a Playoff game on the TVs and the crowd was lively for a Sunday early evening. I had ordered a Hefeweizen and a Rum Horchata cream ale beers. The Rum Horchata wasn't too sweet and it had a nice flavor. I didn't try the other beer but the wifeys loves Wheat beers and didn't complain. We had some of their BBQ which was from a vendor outside. It was really good Smoked Brisket and we definitely have to find them again. The Beer tender was nice and the place was very spacious as far as seating goes. Definitely we will be back to try more of their beers. read more

This place is a humble & quirky local brewery with good beers. We especially loved the Tequila Saison, which had a totally unique flavor! Also sampled two other beers (Hazy & Smoked Kolsch) which were decent. Unfortunately the outdoor seating area is pretty bare bones--just some barrels, stools, and no shade. They do not serve food but seems like they regularly invite local food vendors. read more
