Free State Brewing

Top choice in Kansas


One of many good places on Massachusetts St downtown, this is the first brewery in Kansas since temperance campaigner Carrie Nation got one closed in 1880. The beers are excellent and the food creative, with daily specials. There's always at least 12 choices on tap.
