You Won't Believe What This Local Distillery Just Dropped in the Mission!

Buckle up, Bay Area booze enthusiasts – there’s a new kid on the cocktail block that’s about to change your drinking game! 🍸
From Local Herbs to Liquid Gold
Brucato Amaro, the local liqueur wizards who’ve been secretly crafting California-inspired amari, are finally opening their first brick-and-mortar hangout in the Mission. Nestled at 275 South Van Ness Avenue, Bar Brucato isn’t just another hipster drinking spot – it’s a love letter to Northern California’s landscape, bottled and served with serious attitude.
More Than Just Drinks
Forget your basic bar experience. This place is serving up locally sourced, herbal-infused liqueurs that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance. Their three signature amari – Woodlands, Orchards, and Chaparral – are like a botanical journey through California’s wildest terrains. We’re talking fernet-style intensity, fruity undertones, and enough herbal complexity to make a sommelier weep.
Meet the Makers
Founders Sierra and James Clark aren’t just distilling spirits; they’re preserving a piece of San Francisco culture. Named after John Brucato, the legendary founder of San Francisco’s Farmer’s Market, this spot is basically liquid historical preservation – but make it delicious. With an executive chef whipping up killer small plates and a cocktail menu that’ll make your Instagram followers drool, Bar Brucato is about to become your new weekend destination.
Opening April 10th – mark your calendars and prepare your liver for a truly local adventure!
