With our DO USA talks held in a hop barn, it felt only right that we share the inspiring story of the resurrection and soul of artisan steam beer in the California Bay area.

Brewer Adam Lamoreaux shares the story of the area’s emerging beer community and his Linden Street Brewery, situated in a historic 1890′s brick warehouse in the Port of Oakland. The brewery is focused on bringing a lost tradition back to Oakland in a way that honours beer styles native to the West Coast and contributes to the revitalisation of the Bay area and its people.
