This is a steep, difficult, narrow, raw, hand-built downhill run. You'll definitely want your long-travel, knobby-tried rig.
From Home Brew, watch for this trail to the south. From a very modest initial gate, the trail makes its way down through a series of switchbacks. A notable feature, early-on, is a wide wooden bridge up onto a escarpment where there is a fantastic scenic overlook of the Twin Ports harbor.
Next are a couple of spaced out, very steep, descents down rocky faces, both with pretty quick left-hand turns at the bottom.
Also, at one of the points where the trail switch-backs heading east (uphill on your left, downhill on your right), watch for a big b-line on the left that takes you up a rock outcrop for a steep roll-in back to the main line. Immediately after this there is another a/b option where the left option takes you through a "V" tree, and the right takes you off of a roughly three-foot boulder drop.
The trail mellows-out slightly for the final couple of switchbacks, though, it's still plenty exciting and rough.
Near the bottom, you'll come to a split. Stay high and left to continue on to the Kissing Booth (ascent) trail (https://www.trailforks.com/trails/kissing-booth-ascent/) or keep right and you’ll find yourself on Skyline Parkway (paved road).
