Message TheHOFF43 P beers 2045 º places 169 º 11:28 Wed 10/18/2017 I'll be in Kansas City for a couple days next week. Will have a car. Where should I go for: Beer only Beer and food (brewpub/beer bar types) Stuff to do besides consuming calories Play a reasonably priced round of golf Currently planning on: Joe's BBQ (gas station location) Boulevard
Message BVery beers 13631 º places 750 º 12:04 Wed 10/18/2017 I thought BB's Lawnside was cool. BBQ, music, fun place. I don't remember it being much of a beer joint, but it's been several years too.
Message Clownoisseur beers 531 º places 1 º 12:27 Wed 10/18/2017 Heads up on Joe's: call ahead and place your order. When you show up, enter through gas station and bypass the entire line. You're welcome, enjoy the Z-Man! For beer, I like to hit Bier Station...good tap selection...even better bottle selection...and a solid pub food menu with communal seating. Also, Crane Brewing has been doing good things. A bit of a drive out of the city, but worth a stop.
Message Clownoisseur beers 531 º places 1 º 12:30 Wed 10/18/2017 Oh yea, when we golf in KC, we hit: https://www.minorparkgolfcourse.com/Rates or https://www.swopememorialgolfcourse.com/Rates Edited to add: My wife got a Hole-in-One at Swope last summer.

Message beastiefan2k P beers 5012 º places 294 º 13:21 Wed 10/18/2017 Originally posted by TheHOFF43 Stuff to do besides consuming calories The Nelson-Atkins Musuem is very good and not too big to drain your energy. A visit to Lawrence is worthwhile. For food: I'd throughout visiting Extra Virgin during happy hour http://www.extravirginkc.com/ I recommend the bone marrow Beer: If you go to Lawrence, definitely visit Free State In KC, KC Bier Company if you want lagers
Message TheHOFF43 P beers 2045 º places 169 º 14:17 Wed 10/18/2017 Great advice from everyone so far. We are driving down on I-29 so will have to find something along the way
Message drfabulous beers 15607 º places 239 º 16:13 Wed 10/18/2017 Martin City for beers Woodyard or Oklahoma Joe's for bbq
Message theisti P beers 5288 º places 1153 º 16:19 Wed 10/18/2017 All good recommendations above. I'd add: - Brewery Emperial for great food and solid beers - Torn Label is very close to Emperial, and beers are fantastic - Steamboat Arabia / River Market are both interesting tourist destinations Also, craftbeerkc.com has an active forum of KC users - if you want to post over there may get even more responses. Cheers, Tim

Message rennat42 P beers 5363 º places 205 º 17:26 Wed 10/18/2017 Definitely agree with a lot of the above. My list of eateries and breweries would include: Breweries: - Boulevard - Crane (love their stuff) Eateries: - Joe's (Gas Station) - Grunauer - Beer Kitchen Also, I would take a stop in Weston, MO just north of KC. O'Malley Pub. It's an underground bar/Weston Brewing. Different levels to hang out in. The deepest room is a cave/cellar about 60 feet down. Pretty neat atmosphere. I would also recommend the National WW1 museum if you're in to that kind of stuff.
Message TheHOFF43 P beers 2045 º places 169 º 20:12 Wed 10/18/2017 Thanks all. I truly appreciate it as this all was scheduled today. Still don’t have a hotel but that is a minor detail. Ratebeer is great because it gets you info from people there catered to more than just beer
Message gregwilsonstl beers 2979 º places 37 º 20:23 Wed 10/18/2017 Topgolf is pretty fun. Theres also a few good rock climbing gyms, one of them is actually in a business park that for some reason is in a cave. http://www.thecavebouldering.com/ I think Im going to be doing these things in KC next weekend actually. 10/27-10/29. If you want the best beers from St Louis, then find some KC locals. Thats the running joke with my STL friends at least.
