Notice the “hops” in Ocean Hoptimism? 🍻🌊

No surprise we’re fired up for SF Beer Week (Feb 20–Mar 1). Our home port, Faction Brewing, is rolling out special releases + collabs all week.

Join us Feb 26: bold beer, big Bay ideas, and a toast to ocean hope.

No big pitch, no overthinking. It’s simple. Our community needs help. 💙 Bring a canned or boxed donation to Ocean Hoptimism on Nov 20 at Faction Brewing. Let’s show what compassion in action looks like when empathy leads. #OceanHoptimism #FactionBrewing #FoodDrive

factionbrewing on Instagram: "We have a true “creature feature” for October’s Ocean Hoptimism event!How does a land-dwelling, desert-loving lizard end up thrivin…" We have a true “creature feature” for October’s Ocean Hoptimism event!How does a land-dwelling, desert-loving lizard end up thriving on far-flung, verdant Pacific islands thousands of miles from home? Against impossible odds, and the immensity of the world’s largest ocean basin, iguanas pulled it off. Join Dr. Simon Scarpetta, evolutionary biologist, herpetologist, and paleontologist at the University of San Francisco, as he unravels this extraordinary natural history mystery. Blending fossil evidence, genetics, and evolutionary biology, he’ll take us millions of years back to witness iguanas rafting from North America to Fiji—and reveal how scientists know they truly made this voyage.But this is more than a tale of deep time. Today, Fiji’s iguanas stand on the razor’s edge of survival, facing modern threats of habitat loss and invasive species. Dr. Scarpetta will highlight how these remarkable reptiles, once castaways now endemic to Fiji, depend on urgent conservation. In their story lies a reminder that even in an age of extinctions, resilience endures, and hope is worth fighting for.🗓️ Join us next Thursday, October 23rd for: Floating to Fiji, the Trans-Pacific Voyage of Iguanas

Partnering with a brewery to bring you ocean stories? Yeah, it’s as fun as it sounds. 🍻 Big thanks to our friends at Faction Brewing, where good hops meet good tides.

Your Regularly Scheduled PSA:
Alameda gives island chill, with mainland traffic. Getting there requires bridges, 1 tunnel, OR a ferry + a mile walk (consider it cardio). Swimming? Still a no.

Plan ahead for tonite so you don’t miss Ocean Hoptimism, or the beer.

cosplayers at Batman and Peacekeeper The rows of outdoor tables under tent covers. Tall chrome silos for beer making. The entrance table with the Cape and Cowl Con banner. Inside with it's high ceilings and murals on the walls.

#capeandcowlcon in #alameda was a blast. The location was an upgrade from Gilman St last year to #factionbrewing with bigger space and higher ceilings inside. Incredible art and energy.

Can't wait for next year.

You can bed rot tomorrow. 12pm is the new 5pm, especially on a warm summer day with a cold Faction beer in hand. 🍺 Patio seats come with an SF Bay skyline view so good you’ll forget the time. Get out there and touch some glass!

Ocean Hoptimism’s on deck 🌊🍻 so let’s settle the real debate: garlic fries 🧄🍟, pizza 🍕🍺, or nachos 🧀🔥 while you soak in the ocean joy?
(All three is a power move.)

Faction Brewing, our home port, is the official beer of Mosswood Meltdown on Sunday, July 20th. Because punk, DEVO, and John Waters deserve a brew with attitude. Come for the chaos, stay for the hops, and let’s get weird for the ocean. 🌊🍻
