Perfectly sweet and light. The peach tee kolsch was good too- a nice balance of peach. The cherry limeade wheat was right on the edge of sour. It was good that it was served in a smaller glass so we didn't do too much of it. We also did a shot of the stonebreaker cinnamon whiskey, which was a really nice collab between fringe and another local distillery. Super smooth with an oaky flavor on the background. Absolutely love the dark carnival decor, especially the pinball machines, the giant skeleton and the patio with a garage door interior. Highly highly recommend on every level. You should go!

What an amazing brewer in the KC suburb of Lee's Summit…read more First off the art work is eclectic and many pieces pay homage to the beers on tap. There is a story for much of the art work which I will not do a disservice by trying put it in a review. Go there, see it and ask they'll gladly share the story. Second, INCREDIBLE beers are on tap. I tasted 10 during my visit and every single beer was worth trying. My faves were: Freshly Squeezed Blueberry Lemonade Wheat, Apple Pie Milkshake IPA and Calliope Caramel Cream Ale. Finally, the most important part of the operation is the people. Every single person that was present made me feel welcome and like I was already a part of their community. WOW, I was left feeling like I'd made new friends which I know I did. I travel to KC at least once per year and every year I will return to support this awesome brewery. Thank you for a memorable experience.

They seem to be a local hang out spot for those that know about this place. Business is hidden from main road. You probably won't know to come here unless someone told you about it. They do serve food and drinks here. We just came in for a drink tonight and ordered their old fashioned. Drink was decent and pricing reasonable than other places. They also have outdoor patio which would be nice in warmer weather. Location is also next to a man-made pond. TV screens for sport viewing and music playing in background.

They do offer food and have non alcoholic options. I didn't try the food because I literally ate right before coming here but I definitely want to try it on a return trip. They are dog friendly and I was thrilled to see and get to pet a big puppy who was there being a very good girl. The bartenders have all been super nice. They have a lot of beer. Over 10. I know because we ordered two flights which consisted of five tasters each and we still didn't try everything. But I did enjoy what we did get. They had a really good smoked porter that would pair perfectly with some bbq. And they also had a blackberry lemonade seltzer that was refreshing and perfect for this summer heat wave. If you're in the area definitely stop in.

They also have a good amount of "limited" menu items to eat (loaded fries, pretzels, hotdogs...) They were going to have karaoke that night but I didn't stay that late. They also had a paint/support fundraiser with the KC Zoo going on. I ordered a flight of 5 different beers with were all good with individual flavors and tastes. This will be a place that I stop in more when I'm in the area.

The holy trinity or mind, body, spirit connection! We stumbled upon the brewery by stopping by the Lota Bait store, which is also fun, and noticed their name listed. All we had to do was walk behind and sitting on a nice piece of land with shade trees, picnic tables, lots of chairs, fire pit and a stage for music was heaven. There's a pick up window for your beverage orders or you can go inside for their home brew, seltzers and cocktails made with Tom's Town Distilling spirits. That morning they were making homemade waffles, plain or with bananas and walnuts, one of each please, and their utensils came wrapped and are compostable. Can't wait to spend an evening there after having fun on Lake Lotawana or if you live close enough you're lucky. This place is sweet!

We've been to Iron Kettle Brewing a couple times and enjoyed our experiences both times! The most…read morerecent time we went, I ordered the Master of Potions (Veggie) Pizza. 10 inch thin crust or 10 inch cauliflower crust are the only options/sizes, which is fine with me - defintely had enough pizza to take home for leftovers. My husband ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap and really liked it! The Pretzel Bites appetizer is also awesome! I will say the first time we went, I got a small order (8) of boneless Buffalo wings and they were less "boneless wings" and more premade, processed chicken nugget. The sauce was good, though just for the quality of meat I wouldn't order them again. Our bartenders have been knowledgeable and friendly each time, with service always quick and attentive. The atmosphere is cool, we like the vibe and decor of Iron Kettle. We've never been when it's super busy, and always sit at the bar to browse their nice selection of whiskeys. Overall, love Iron Kettle Brewery and will defintely be back!

Also came here on a Saturday night in October, with a packed house, an underground haunted speakeasy and merriment in the air, also aided by some delicious in house brews. I'll come back anytime, particularly for the excellent bock. It doesn't hurt that the servers are super friendly, seating is plentiful (maybe not the most comfortable chairs) and there are pinball machines.

I didn't even know this existed! It is an actual brewery on Independence Square. Their menu (mostly…read moredifferent beers and a few drinks) is small. But I loved the friendly service and the space itself. It's wonderful for a band-which was why I was there. There's a hallway of art work, with an art studio. Down the hall from there is a window with the adjacent restaurant selling a large variety of flat breads. Again, more artwork. Then you see the barrels and the quaintly decorated bathroom doors. Really, it's worth it to see. I really like 3 Trails Brewery and will return.

But you're coming for the beer, and the beer is really great. Limitless has gone from a location in a light office park to its own standalone building, complete with patio and plenty of space. There are generally half a dozen or more of their own craft brews on tap ranging from IPA through porter/stout. You may have even had some of their flagship beers elsewhere, such as JoCo Juice, a hazy IPA or Rolling in the Deep, a double New England IPA. I myself go for malt over hop, so I find their Marzen to be one of my favorite beers. If they have their Mexican lager on tap, then I also suggest sampling that as well. A flight of four runs you $14-ish and is a great value, as the sample sizes give you plenty of opportunity to really get a feel for their offerings. If you find something you really like, then you can take four-packs home to go in cans. Limitless is open almost every day, at least until 7:00 and when the weather is nice, the patio was a must do. There are frequently people playing a board game or just enjoying the space, and while I don't want this to be just another noisy space, they could do with maybe a TV or two more. But that is just me being picky and since they are in the neighborhood, I like visiting whenever I can.
