We already have plans to attend a few:  Big Rip Snake Saturday Party, Crafts & Drafts Presented by The Pitch, Kegs ‘N’ Eggs at the Renaissance Festival, KC Nanobrew Fest, Boulevardia, and the High Plains Brewhoff.

KC Nanobrew Festival Beer List Released

Starting in 2009, a group of Brooksiders decided they like to homebrew and wanted to share that experience with friends, family, and fellow beer lovers, so they created the Annual Brookside Nanobrew Festival.  For the first few years, there were just a handful of beers to be tried, but every year grew bigger.  So in 2012, they upgraded to a larger festival called KC Nanobrew Festival.  This year, over 50 homebrewers will be sharing over 100 of their creative beers.

This festival has spit out several successful breweries including Big Rip Brewing, Cinder Block Brewery, Red Crow Brewing Company, and Rock & Run Brewery.  A few homebreweries to watch for this year include Beagle Brewing Co, The Brewkery, Burrows Brewing, Eye for an Eye Brewing Company, SchuBrew, and Spare Oom.

Tickets are $32.04 (including services fee).  They are limited and will sell out, so if you haven’t purchased yours, don’t wait!
