They make really solid beer. What can I say. I like that this spot is outdoors, despite being at the Ferry Building and on the Embarcadero, it feels very calm and relaxed. I didn't try any of the food - so this review is based just off of beer and ambiance - but both of those are spot on. And they have neat beer can wall decoration. Kid friendly. Pet friendly.

Went there to pick up a growler. Let me pick from any beer on tap. Super quick and friendly service!

Food - This is the only reason why they get 4 stars instead of 5. I wish they had like 1 more item on the food menu since it feels wrong to bring outside food. Service - It's a walk up kiosk situation and they have some crop points for you to bus your own table. Ambiance - Great location and lots of people-watching opportunities since it's at the front of the building facing west. Most of their seating is covered so you are thankfully out of the sun. It has a simple brewery industrial vibe that's pretty photogenic. Dog - This is one of the few places we can be responsible dog owners at the Ferry Building. Dogs aren't allowed inside but the setup of this place allows us to bring the dog without feeling like entitled heathens.

Having a beer at the Ferry Building in San Francisco is a great way to relax on a hot Summer day. I enjoyed their Animal beer. I also enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere.

Great location for Fort Point Brewery. One problem is that they run out of beer all the time!!! I make up for that with a Beef Pie from next door.

Beer is always best fresh, and I thoroughly enjoyed my weekday lunch visit. It's basically just a kiosk take out window in front of the Ferry Building. Lots of seating, both in the shade and in the sun. They have maybe 8 taps plus a decent selection of cans. I wasn't sure what I wanted, so the bartender was nice enough to walk me through a few different beers with samples and descriptions. I settled on the ANIMAL IPA with my empanada.

Walked by this fort point and my friend said she tried their yuzu beer recently and loved it! We stopped by to see if they had it and they did. The person at the front generously let me sample it before actually buying and I fell in love. I went from a sample to a glass to bringing home a 4 pack lol

Super appreciated the covered seating area. Perfect after getting caught in the rain. Had a hot dog, ruffle chips with green goddess dip, delicious!

What's going on? First, a bar. Now a beer company?! It's not what you think, things haven't dampened me to the bottle or beer. A friend who is a Tuesday farmer's market regular generously offered and bought me a hot dog. Thinking that I knew the INS and outs of the Ferry Building, said friend showed me this place. My friend walked to the counter of this stand next to the new doggie boutique store and ordered me a fancy hot dog (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=YFagMouzbYC6zLNIxpjjIQ&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q); getting the beef dog, the menu describes this as including housemade kraut, mustard, and fancy sauce. The cashier asked whether we wanted it spicy which we both said yes. The stoneground mustard along with the bite (chewiness) of the dog paired well with the delicious bun. This definitely ain't no Costco hot dog, pardon my grammar. I enjoyed this and it was a perfect accompaniment to my salad in the office for lunch. In studying the food menu, there are a couple of other items that I'd like to try so, perhaps in the next couple of weeks, I may be posting more photos of their foods. About the beer, well, as mentioned, I'm not a beer kind of guy so I'll leave that to others.
