In KC: Head to Westport for McCoy’s Brewpub. The Beer Kitchen is located right across the street as well. Not a lot of taps, but what they have on hand is usually pretty good.

Columbia, MO: Take the Providence exit off I-70 and head south towards MU campus for Flat Branch Brewpub. Shakespeare’s Pizza is within walking distance and has pretty good craft selection.

St. Louis: Lot’s of good picks, but I’d go with the tasting room at 4 hands. Lots of cool seasonal offerings and imperials there.

more St. Louis: tons of options, but some of my favorites. Breweries: Urban Chestnut, Perennial, Civil Life, 4 Hands, Schlafly (tap room). Restaurants with GREAT brews: the Bridge Tap House and Wine Bar, Iron Barley, Dressels, the Royale, 3 Kings and for tons of beer only: iTap! enjoy!

When in INDY, you must stop at Sun King brewery. Also try 21 Tap in Broadripple area for nice local bar that offers a great selection of local brews (Upland, Bruges, 3 Floyd’s).
Let me know what you think.
