Not your average
neighborhood bar

Floodcraft Taproom was born from a simple conviction: Santa Clara deserved a place where serious beer people and casual sippers could share the same room without anyone judging anyone else's choice.

We opened our doors with 20 taps and a commitment to rotation β€” no beer sits on our line longer than it deserves to. Our kitchen partners with local purveyors to bring you small plates that actually complement what's pouring.

Whether you're here for the IPA flight, a quiet pint after work, or a loud birthday with your whole crew, this is your spot.

Something for
every palate

Our taps rotate weekly. Here's what we're proud to pour right now.

West Coast IPAs

Resinous, citrusy, and unapologetically bold. Our core rotation features the best from California and the Pacific Northwest.

6 taps

Stouts & Porters

Dark, rich, and complex. From session porters to barrel-aged stouts that deserve to be sipped slowly.

5 taps

Lagers & Pilsners

Crisp, clean, and refreshing. Sometimes you just want a perfect lager β€” and we have the best ones.

7 taps

Sours & Wild Ales

Tart, funky, and adventurous. For the curious drinker who likes their beer to make you pucker.

4 taps

Seasonal & Limited

One-off releases, brewery collaborations, and seasonal specialties. If it's special, it's on our tap list.

4+ taps

Ciders & Non-Alc

Artisanal ciders and craft non-alcoholic beers. Everyone deserves a great drink β€” no exceptions.

3 taps

Food that
matches the beer

Our kitchen keeps it simple and focused: small plates designed to pair with what's pouring. Think crispy everything, bold flavors, and ingredients sourced from local suppliers whenever possible.

Warm, soft pretzel bites with our house beer cheese and Dijon mustard.

Loaded Nachos

Stacked high with pulled pork, jalapeΓ±os, cotija, and house salsa verde.

Craft Burger

Local beef, aged cheddar, caramelized onions, and secret sauce on a brioche bun.
