THE MONTHLY NEWSLETTER OF PINE RIDGE BUSINESS PARK |
|
|
See the new KC for yourself inside the Power & Light District (or “P&L” as locals call it), an eight-block entertainment hub chock-full of more than 50 bars, restaurants and shops. KC Live!—the district’s covered outdoor courtyard—hosts more than 130 free events each year. Across the street is one of the country’s busiest arenas, the glittering T-Mobile Center. Theater is well represented here too, as shown by the many marquees lighting up the night. Take your movie-watching to the next level at Alamo Drafthouse, a modern cinema with a refreshing, ironclad no-talking/no-texting policy, plus cool features like quote-along shows and in-theatre pyrotechnics. Test your skills at The College Basketball Experience, a hands-on hoops haven, or uncover the “Titanic of the Missouri River” at the Arabia Steamboat Museum, a tribute to the 1856 shipwreck. End the night by taking in KC’s signature sound at downtown jazz venues such as The Phoenix.

WHERE TO SHOP....downtown KC |
|
Rain or shine, the region’s largest farmers market can be found at The City Market every Saturday and Sunday year-round. The bounty includes more than 140 stalls of fresh produce, flowers, baked goods and other local wares. Farther down Main Street, multi-task at The Garment District, a fashion collective with eight stores in one, complete with a full-service bar in the middle of it.
|
|
This nightlife district isn’t just about bar bites. Discerning diners enjoy Bristol—a KC institution where the seafood is flown in daily—while The Mixx attracts health-conscious professionals looking for fast-casual cuisine. City Market staples cover the globe, with flavors running the gamut from Indian and Vietnamese to French, Mexican and sweet treats. But that’s not to say we’ve forgotten our roots; remind your taste buds with a delicious steak at The Majestic.

What’s New for KC Tap Tour Season 5
|
|
With exclusive deals at nearly 30 Kansas City-area breweries and new keepsakes to commemorate the sips you’ve savored, the KC Tap Tour is back and bigger than ever. Catch up on the latest news and get ready to strike out on the new season, available May 28 through Dec. 31.
A long list of noteworthy additions for this season begins in an all-important place—the taprooms and tastes you’ll be able to sample along the way. Meet the four new breweries participating for the first time during Season 5:
-
City Barrel Brewery + Kitchen: Sip a wide and ever-changing selection of sours and IPAs at City Barrel’s sprawling brick-lined space in the Crossroads.
-
Iron Kettle Brewing: Scottish roots and an affection for Europe’s inviting, storied pubs inspired this Grain Valley destination. Iron Kettle features a robust menu of ales and charming touches at every turn.
-
ExBEERiment Brewing: Bring your own lunch or dinner and settle in for a brew or two at ExBEERiment’s laid-back taproom in Gardner.
-
The Goat Brewing Co.: With a name that serves as a nod to Kansas City’s Prohibition past (political boss Tom Pendergast and his affiliates were collectively known as the Goats), pick from a wide variety of beers and ciders at this new addition in Lee’s Summit.
In addition to four all-new stops, you’ll be able to visit two familiar favorites—Torn Label Brewing Co. and Border Brewing Co.—at brand new spaces in the Crossroads Arts District. Torn Label's sunny and spacious taproom is now open, while Border's new venue makes its debut this summer.
FRESH PRIZES
|
|
There's a new collection of craft beer gear in store for those who take on the KC Tap Tour's fifth season. After your first five stops, pick up an exclusive taster. Planning to conquer all 27 taprooms? There’s a KC Tap Tour growler waiting for you when you’ve finished the circuit, ready to help you refill on a favorite brew you discovered during your outings.
UPGRADED DEALS UPDATED EXPERIENCE
|
|
|
New keepsakes are a worthy payoff waiting for you at the end of the journey, but this season of the KC Tap Tour promises more benefits from your very first stop, with more than $200 of deals and discounts in total.
Grab a companion or plan to stick around for a second round—more breweries than ever have added a “buy one, get one” deal available exclusively through the KC Tap Tour. Prefer to sample some of KC’s favorite brews in the comfort of your own home? Many breweries are offering additional discounts on cans and growlers to take with you.
|
|
|
|
If you participated in Season 4 of the KC Tap Tour, you’ll already be familiar with its new all-digital format. The designed-for-mobile experience means you can purchase your pass anywhere—and your phone is all you need to bring to the bar in order to check into any participating brewery. The digital experience is available immediately, so you can even sign up when you’ve already arrived at a participating brewery and start saving right away.
If you're in town for a quick visit, purchase a 3-day pass for just $5 and enjoy all of the same savings (plus the opportunity take home a taster after visiting your first five breweries) at a lower price.
Ready to embark on Season 5 of the KC Tap Tour? Get your pass at visitkc.com/TapTour, available May 28 through Dec. 31.
