More about Ghost Town Brewing (Laurel)
Ghost Town took a 10-year lease in 2021 on the space left empty when 4505 Burgers and BBQ closed its Oakland location during the pandemic. The taps lean toward the brewery's own beers, with some wine and cider. The list changes often and runs heavily to hops: hazy IPAs such as Acheron and West Coast IPAs such as Deiform, alongside pale ale, amber, pilsner, robust porter and cream ale.
