Degrees Plato, Oakland CA

26 June 2023

After a lazy day, Frank and I headed to Degrees Plato for a couple of pints. Degrees Plato is a measurement used in the brewing of beer, so it’s appropriate this little spot has used this as their name. They don’t brew themselves, but they do focus on craft beers with a decent tap list as well as large beer coolers with all sorts of things available.

In addition to their indoor space, there’s an enclosed outdoor space with what is most likely a stage for live shows.

My first pint was Sister Frida, a 6.2% Hazy IPA by Laughing Monk Brewing in San Francisco. Such a tasty pint and a great color!

The second was Mini Separation Anxiety, a 4% Session IPA by Berryessa Brewing in Winters CA. Not only was the flavor great, but this didn’t taste “thin” as so many beers with low alcohol content like this one do.

This concludes the Oakland stay on this trip. Other beers that I had while here include:

• Paulaner Oktoberfest
• Hacker-Pschorr Munich Dunkel
• 21st Amendment Hazy IPA
• 21st Amendment Blood Orange IPA
• Drake’s Brewing Denogginizer Double IPA
• (plus one or more two I don’t recall the names of)
