Description
Join us in Alameda Point, Alameda on the morning of the Beer City Festival for a run around the waterfront. Alameda Pint includes 10k and 5k races, as well as our Beer Stroll, a one-mile walk that starts and ends with a toast! The post-race celebration includes a selection of beers that will be served at the Beer City Festival, which starts at 11am. Want to stick around for the whole day? Runners can purchase a Second Shift pass to hang out until 2pm. This gives you a full day for 25% off a Beer City Festival ticket.
Alameda Pint runs from Radium Runway, which is immediately adjacent to Waterfront Park, out and around Alameda Point West, by Faction Brewing, Almanac Brewing, Admiral Malting, and The Rake.
The Beer City fun begins on Labor Day, with our Beer Trail, which encourages you to visit East Bay brewers and collects special tokens. We notify you by text message where these can be found. It's fun and it's free!
Runners receive a shirt, a custom Beer City tasting glass for the finish celebration, and the coveted Key to Beer City Alameda.
The Race of Champions
Alameda Pint is a final year-end party for you and everyone who has been to Beer City throughout the year, from Santa Rosa to Sacramento, San Jose, and Fremont. Come enjoy a great race and go toe-to-toe with the Champions from the Beer City Series!

Then you go down Main and over W. Atlantic. Next thing you know, you're bumping into the 5k racers!
