Fieldwork Brewing San Mateo Turns One!

Can you believe it has been almost one year since Fieldwork Brewing at Bay Meadows has opened and welcomed visitors to its beer garden?! Time flies when you’re having fun brushing up on your bocce game and enjoying a flight of the finest local beer.

“According to Untappd, I’ve had virtually every beer ever made by Fieldwork. I’ve been a huge fan since the very beginning. Still am. This Fieldwork location in San Mateo is a lovely outdoor spot for fine beers along the way.” – John M.

“Perfect for an afternoon with kids and adults. The beer was phenomenal and the food was even good! Two enthusiastic thumbs up!” – Jenn N.

Bay Meadows is proud to enjoy a neighbor like Fieldwork Brewing Company, a craft brewery with a focus on exceptional, honest beer-making. Visitors to Fieldwork continue to enjoy a family-friendly, community vibe in the outdoor beer garden featuring communal seating, adjacent fire-pits, and leisure activities. Fieldwork Brewing offers an ever-changing tap list of fresh releases to enjoy by sampler flight, beer by the glass, and fresh beer filled “to go” in Growlers and nifty Crowler cans.

“What a chill spot in San Mateo area! The outdoor picnic tables with the strings of lights gives this place a very urban and hipster vibe. Even during the cold nights, they have heaters that keep you warm and toasty. This is the perfect spot to hang with some friends over some beer.” – Cindy Z.
