Ladies
and Gentlemen:
This
letter is submitted on behalf of Beeline Holdings, Inc. ("Beeline" or the "Company") in response to the comments
made by the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the "Staff") of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
on September 22, 2025 (the "Comment Letter") with respect to the Company's draft Registration Statement on Form S-1
confidentially submitted on September 12, 2025. The Registration Statement is being publicly filed simultaneously with this response
letter. Where applicable, the Company has updated disclosure to give effect to changed events.
Because
of the uncertainty as to when the Commission will re-open and the potential harm to shareholders, the Company has elected to use the
automatic effectiveness provision provided by Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. If the Staff disagrees with this position,
the Company will co-operate with the Staff mindful of its mission to protect shareholders and further the public interest.
For
your convenience, each of the Staff's comments have been restated below in their entirety, with the Company's responses set
forth immediately beneath such comment.

Amendment No. 1 to Registration
Statement on Form S-1
Filed April 8, 2015
File No. 333-202033
Dear Mr. Spirgel:
On behalf of our client,
Eastside Distilling, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), we are filing herewith an Amendment No. 2 (the
“Amendment”) to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) on February 11, 2015 and amended by Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement
filed on April 8, 2015 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”). The Amendment has been prepared in
response to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) delivered by way of it letter dated April 17, 2015 (the
“Comment Letter”). Set forth below are the Company’s responses to the Staff’s comments, numbered
in a manner to correspond to the order which the Staff’s comments were delivered. For your convenience, we have included
the original comments from the Comment Letter in their entirety.

The Acquisition of
Eastside Distilling, LLC, page 35
1. Please disclose any material relationship between Eurocan Holdings
Ltd. and its affiliates and Eastside Distilling LLC and its affiliates prior to the execution of the agreement and plan of merger.
If no such relationships existed, explain how the parties were introduced and the reasons they decided to proceed with the transaction
and the particular structure. Identify any third parties that played a material role in arranging or facilitating the transactions
and disclose the benefits they received for their roles.
Response: On or about April
30, 2014, Eurocan Holdings Ltd. (“Eurocan”) and Eastside Distilling LLC (“Eastside LLC”) entered into
a letter of intent with respect to a proposed business combination, which was ultimately reflected in the agreement and plan
of merger. Thereafter, on June 17, 2014, Eurocan loaned $150,000 to Eastside LLC. The loan was made as a bridge loan in
anticipation of the transaction contemplated by the letter of intent and the agreement and plan of merger. The loan accrued
interest daily at the rate of 5% per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days
and compounded monthly) and was secured with any and all assets of Eastside LLC. No other material relationship between
Eurocan and its affiliates and Eastside LLC and its affiliates existed prior to the execution of the agreement and plan of
merger.

Eastside LLC and Eurocan were introduced
by an existing debt investor and creditor of Eurocan, Crystal Falls Investments, LLC (“Crystal Falls”), who in turn
was introduced to Eastside LLC by a mutual colleague. The parties decided to proceed with the transaction in order to provide Eastside
LLC with access to the public capital markets and to enhance the financial condition and performance of Eurocan. The transaction
structure was negotiated between the parties to reflect the economic terms that the parties negotiated and to qualify the transaction
as a tax-free exchange under Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code. This disclosure has been include in the Amendment.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
2. We note your response to our prior comment 9 and disclosure on page
38 regarding the $150,000 loan between Eurocan Holdings Ltd. and Eastside Distilling, LLC on June 13, 2014. Please also provide
disclosure about the $150,000 non-interest bearing, unsecured, demand loan from Crystal Falls LLC to Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. made
on the same date. Disclose any relationship between the parties to the loans and the role of Crystal Falls LLC in the reverse merger
transaction. Disclose why Eurocan Holdings Ltd. took out a loan to provide the loan to Eastside Distilling, LLC. Explain the business
purpose of structuring the loans in this manner. Explain why the loan from Crystal Falls LLC was amended to add new terms including
interest, conversion rights, a maturity date and a pre-payment penalty. Also explain why the promissory note from Eastside Distilling,
LLC was stated to be convertible when it was non-convertible and why the original demand note references Crystal Falls LLC, but
the amended note now refers to Crystal Falls Investment LLC. Lastly, explain why your disclosure under “Convertible Promissory
Note” on page 30 appears to state that the convertible promissory note between Eurocan Holdings and Eastside Distilling
Response: In June, 2014, as Eurocan
and Eastside LLC were negotiating and structuring the merger transaction that ultimately closed on October 31, 2014, Eastside LLC
was seeking interim short-term capital in the form of a bridge loan. For operational reasons, time was of the essence.
Eastside LLC asked Crystal Falls to provide a bridge loan of 150,000. As stated above, Crystal Falls was already an existing
debt investor and creditor in Eurocan and had introduced Eastside to Eurocan. After negotiations between Eurocan, Eastside
LLC, and Crystal Fall, on or about June 17, 2014, Eurocan loaned $150,000 to Eastside LLC, which loan in turn was financed by the
issuance of a demand loan by Eurocan to Crystal Falls. The loan was made as a bridge loan in anticipation of the transaction
contemplated by the letter of intent and the agreement and plan of merger. The parties negotiated to structure the bridge
loan as a loan from Crystal Falls to Eurocan and then as a loan from Eurocan to Eastside. The business purposes of structuring
the loans in this manner were two-fold. First, Crystal Falls was already a debt investor and creditor of Eurocan and preferred
to make an additional investment in a company in which it had already invested, rather than a new investment in a different issuer.
This facilitated the transaction documentation and the due diligence investigation, as time was of the essence in the making of
the bridge loan. Second, Crystal Falls preferred to invest in an issuer whose common stock was already publicly traded, rather
than in a privately held LLC. In accordance with these two investment criteria, Crystal Falls, Eurocan, and Eastside LLC
negotiated to have Crystal Falls purchase the demand note from Eurocan and then have Eurocan loan the proceeds to Eastside LLC.

The original promissory note dated
June 13, 2014 and attached as Exhibit 10.1 incorrectly identified Crystal Falls as “Crystal Falls Llc” instead of
“Crystal Falls Investments, LLC” as a result of error in drafting. This mistake was corrected in the
amended note dated September 19, 2014. In addition, as time was of the essence, the parties agreed to have Eurocan
issue a demand note to Crystal Falls initially in order to provide the parties additional time to negotiate the remaining
terms of the loan in good faith. These negotiations continued until around September 19, 2014, at which point, in lieu
of Crystal Falls demanding repayment of the note, Eurocan and Crystal Falls amended the note to contain the terms set forth
in the 5% Convertible Note dated September 19, 2014. The new terms, including interest, conversion rights, a maturity
date, and a pre-payment penalty were negotiated between Eurocan and Crystal Falls. The promissory note from Eastside
LLC to Eurocan was incorrectly titled as a convertible promissory note due to an error in drafting. As the note is not
convertible on its terms, the parties do not see any need to incur the cost and expense of re-drafting the note. This
disclosure is contained in the Amendment.
The disclosure on page 30 has been revised
to reflect that it was the demand note that was amended, as follows:
“On June 13, 2014, we issued a demand
note in the amount of approximately $150,000, which note was amended on September 19, 2014 to be a 5% convertible note. The amended
note bears interest at 5% per annum and has a maturity date of June 13, 2015. The amended note may be converted into shares of
our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.40 per share. This amended note may be prepaid upon payment of 150% of the outstanding
principal amount to the holder.”

Note 3. Acquisition, page F-12
3. Please expand your disclosure either here or in another footnote
to disclose the impact on your financial statements of the spinoff of MWWD.
Response: The Company
has added additional disclosure in Note 1 to its financial statements contained in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period
ended March 31, 2015 (which are included in the Amendment) to expand the disclosure on the impact on its financial statements for
the spinoff of MWWD to state that, the Company recorded a net gain
of approximately $50,000 on February 3, 2015, which was primarily the result of the transfer of net liabilities to Michael Williams.
The Company has also included this disclosure in “Prospectus Summary”, “Description of Business” and “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis” under the heading “Spin-Off of MWWD.”
Note 8, Income Taxes, page F-14
4. Please tell us your basis for your disclosure that at December 31,
2014, you had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of approximately $367,000 and $366,000, respectively, to
offset against future income for federal and state tax purposes. We note that these probably related to Eurocan and may be affected
by the change in control resulting from the merger.
Response: On behalf of the Company,
please be advised that the federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of approximately $367,000 and $366,000, respectively,
as of December 31, 2014 relate solely to Eastside’s federal and state tax loss incurred for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Any NOLs from Eurocan incurred prior to the merger with Eastside were not factored into these figures.

Statement on Form S-1 incorrectly identified the original loan to Crystal Falls as a convertible note. This reference was not contained

(the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) on February 11, 2015 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”).
The Amendment has been prepared in response to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) delivered by way of
it letter dated March 10, 2015 (the “Comment Letter”). Set forth below are the Company’s responses
to the Staff’s comments, numbered in a manner to correspond to the order which the Staff’s comments were delivered.
For your convenience, we have included the original comments numbered 1-9 and 17 from the Comment Letter in their entirety.
Please
be advised that based on a March 31, 2015 telephone conversation with Sharon Virga, Staff Accountant, it was determined and agreed
that since the acquisition with Eastside Distilling LLC and the spin-off of the operations of MWW are both reflected in the Company’s
audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014—pro forma financial statements are not required.
As such, there are no separate responses to comments 10-16 related to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in the Registration Statement filed on February 11, 2015. And specifically, with respect to Comment 14 (as
also discussed with Ms. Virga in the March 31, 2015 call), for the ten months ended October 31, 2014, during which the
Company was a limited liability company (the “LLC”), the LLC incurred a net loss and the book and tax provision
would be nil, and in 2013, the LLC had book income of approximately $87,000 for which a proforma tax provision would be less than
$25,000, an amount that is not deemed material.
