Add Tied House to the list. A 10 minute walk from the Mountain View Transit Station (Caltrain and VTA light rail).

Any Sharks TV game feature half pints (manager’s choice of beer)for 50 cents during the first period.

We stopped at the Lawrence caltrain stop last weekend and hoofed it to faultline brewery. About a twenty minute walk or so…well worth it. Great beer including an ipa on cask

Hi Ian,

Thanks for the tip. We look forward to checking it out. We are a little light on Peninsula beer spots.

Cheers,

Steve

A great pub near the Millbrae BART station is Fiddler’s Green. Proper Irish pub, great selection of beer and spirits and friendly staff. Best of all its maybe a 5 minute walk up El Camino from the station.

Good beer along the Peninsula Caltrain line (other than Steelhead and Firehouse Breweries):

San Carlos — Pudley’s Tavern (El Camino, two blocks)
Redwood City — City Pub (Broadway, one block)
Palo Alto — Rose & Crown (Emerson, two blocks)
Sunnyvale — Faultline (Oakmead, about a mile by bus)

Note that I did not mention Gordon -Biersch or Tied House, although both are close enough to stops.

Thanks, Mr. Mike. We, too, find ourselves at 21st Amendment Brewery before and/or after watching the Giants, making it a perfectly lovely day. BTW, they sometimes have cans of their IPA and Watermelon Wheat beers for sale there. Perfect for a CalTrain ride.

Cheers,

Steve

Ah, a grand ole pastime of mine is catching the train to the Giants game. And a grand ole pastime of grabbing a brew pre game and/or postgame is great to go along with it! Very well organized site! Cheers!

We maintain a comprehensive and ever-expanding list of quality watering holes (and a few good dive bars!) you can reach by traveling on Caltrain.
