10 Best Breweries and Beer Places in Lee's Summit

"Known for putting the “i” back in beer, KC Bier Co. makes German-style beers in Kansas City. The Waldo brewery's outdoor beer garden gives Kansas City the opportunity to experience Bavarian culture right on the Trolley Track Trail. On Saturdays, take the public brewery tour at 1pm, then find a seat outside and enjoy a beer flight or a growler of KC Bier Co.'s popular Weizenbock, Dunkel or Hefeweizen."

"Their motto: “We put the I back in Bier.” The KC Bier Co. is all about brewing authentic German-style beer, right in the heart of Kansas City. Whether you’re interested in observing the process or enjoying traditional German foods like sausages and cheeses, it’s always a good idea to visit the Bierhalle."

"German-style beer brewed in KC and served along with sausages, cheeses and breads in a traditional style bierhalle and biergarten. Country Club Plaza/Brookside/Waldo. 310 W 79th St, Kansas City, MO 64114"

"Kansas City’s brewery and distillery scene is booming, with most of it centered in the Crossroads neighborhood. Of all the breweries you can visit, our favorite is Casual Animal, which has a heavy animal theme. Before you shudder at the thought of animal print wallpaper and monkey-shaped chairs, the theme here stops at the animal logos on the beer labels (like Chaos Monkey Banana Cream Pie Ale)."

"Bring the kiddos and pack some snacks for a fun time at Casual Animal!. Aside from a few bar snacks, this brewery doesn’t have a full-service kitchen. Guests are welcome to bring their own food or order delivery."

"For those who are looking to drink with a vibrant crowd, head to Border Brewing Company. The small taproom fills up fast, and on warm nights, the glass garage door on its facade is opened, letting the breeze and sounds of the Crossroads Arts District inside. Its most interesting beers are its more complex ones like the smoky Campfire Porter, the Coffee Break, made with a base of local beans from Blip Roasters (located just a few miles North) or the cacao-tinged Chocolate Milk Stout."

"In the Crossroads Arts District, Double Shift Brewing has been delighting Kansas City residents with their small-batch beers. The beer enthusiasts behind Double Shift are passionate brewers by day with “second shift” jobs by night. The team has led double lives as musicians, tattoo artists, and firefighters over the years."

"Whether you want Strange Days Brewing Company to be a stop pre- or post-exploration of downtown, hop on the streetcar and head to the Rivermarket District on the south bank of the Missouri River. Prepare for things to get a little weird in the best way. Try their more nontraditional offerings, like the Chai Time Porter, with a chai spice base or the Georgia On My Mind, brewed with peaches, sea salt, and coriander."

"Along with an awesome selection of beer, there is a very small menu of bar snacks. However, Strange Days allows patrons to bring in their own food or even get it delivered to their brewery."

"Many people searching for a seafood dinner want to make sure they’re choosing a restaurant dedicated to sustainability. If this is what you’re looking for in a seafood restaurant, your best choice in Kansas City is Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar. Located on the Roanoke Parkway, Jax’s mission is to bring the coasts to the coastless by providing some of the best seafood you can find."

"They source all of their products from trustworthy and fresh sources—not to mention they were the first restaurant in Missouri to partner with the Monterey Bay Seafood Watch. If you’re down to try something new, get their Emersum Oysters. They developed it with the team at Rappahannock River Oysters to ensure complete sustainability and a delicious product."

"Embark to the Crossroads Arts District, where you’ll find subterranean speakeasy Swordfish Tom’s, an intimate cocktail lounge located in a retrofitted boiler room. Dim lighting and limited phone use mean that conversation is key in this trendy hideaway."
