KC Beer Fest
KC Beer Fest is tomorrow! The weather forecast looks ridiculously good for an outdoor beer fest, and the beer list looks great. Tickets are still on sale for VIP and GA. VIP starts tomorrow at 2pm, and GA at 3pm. We've got some more details about the fest on our previous festival post.
A word to the wise--parking and traffic will suck as usual, so why not just park southwards and take the Streetcar in? Or better yet, walk, bike, or Uber over to one of the MAX bus lines that run all the way from 75th (Main MAX) or 95th Street (Troost MAX) up to downtown and are also super quick, easy, and nice. Or check out Bridj. Seriously, there's a bunch of ways to get there that don't involve you driving, parking, and then getting a DUI afterwards so check them out!
I can't say that I'm up on my WHALEZ enough to give you a full rundown of all the beers you need to get, but I can definitely say they've got some great breweries coming and a bunch of breweries I've never tried before. Lots of excellent out of market & rare breweries and a bunch of breweries that I've never even heard of before. Some of those I've never heard of look pretty excellent based on their Untappd reviews. Also looks like our locals are also bringing some great beers to the fest.
We've got the whole list below the fold for your pre-game planning. Have fun and be safe! Prost!
