The Best Bar for Pale Ale
While Marin Brewing Co. is well known for its delicious eats, don’t overlook its extensive bottled beer collection, in particular pale ales and IPAs. For something local, order a bottle of Mt. Tam Pale Ale. As one of their bestsellers, the brew has a bright golden color and medium body and is incredibly smooth. Another local favorite is their Marin India Pale Ale, crafted in the same style designed to withstand the trip to India. For something a little unexpected, opt for their fruity and refreshing Raspberry Trail Ale.

The Best Bar for Craft Beer
The Best Beer Garden
Novato’s Hopmonk Tavern is a popular spot for Sunday Night Football, but that’s not the only thing drawing patrons through the doors. Hopmonk has a spacious beer garden decked out with a fire pit, fountains, string lights and more. By day it gives off a picnic feel but come nightfall the space transforms into a romantic date spot or even an outdoor concert hall. In addition to its extensive menu of fresh beer on draft, Hopmonk also serves bottled beer—Guinness, Alaskan Amber Ale and Green Flash Imperial IPA, to name a few.
Best Variety of Craft Beer on Tap
Creekside Pizza & Taproom is ready for Marin’s football season with three large screen TVs and an endless selection of tap beers. The taproom features 40 tap handles with over 30 craft beers from more than 25 unique craft breweries, plus hard cider, kombucha, draft root beer and Creekside's own Cold Brew coffee. A team player can’t go wrong with a selection of craft beers to awe even the most hardened beer enthusiast, plus outstanding local, organic and estate wines from Napa, Sonoma and Monterey wines.
A relative newcomer to Marin is Fieldwork Brewing Company in Corte Madera’s Town Center. Visitors to their Taproom can expect an ever-changing tap list of fresh releases to enjoy by sampler flight or by the glass. Just remember to look up from your beer every so often to watch that winning game!
