The Kansas City Bier Company is the second largest brewery in the Kansas City area, and KC’s largest locally-owned brewery. Our mission is to produce authentic tasting German-style bier and serve it at the same level of freshness as if the consumer were drinking in a Munich Bierhalle. We produce authentic flavor by importing 100% of our hops and malt from Germany and by following traditional German brewing methods. Our bier is fresh because it is produced locally, and it is unpasteurized, unfiltered, and naturally carbonated. We distribute in bottles and kegs throughout Kansas and western Missouri through a network of 18 individual distributorships.
