United States Missouri Kansas City

Brewery Emperial

An urban brewpub offering an array of craft beers, eclectic eats, and a laid-back atmosphere with a spacious beer garden and live music events.

Tips from the community

Brewery Emperial was opened in 2016 and includes a tap of both American and European staples like Pilsner, Kolsch, and their Emperial IPA. Emperial is one of the most traditional breweries in the city, but when it comes to beer sometimes a classic is the best. Beer evokes memory, and I can recall a cold Kolsch in the expansive backyard of Emperial as well as a classic Miller High Life in a dive bar in my hometown. They just go well together. Check out Emperial for a no frills classic.

  • The Best Breweries in Kansas City

    Kansas City is one of the most famous brewing cities in America. Local brewers have gone on to win national accolades year after year. The brewery scene in Kansas City is truly exceptional, featuring unique hops present in everything from national brands to microbreweries. My advice: go brewery hopping. It’s impossible to see all that the Kansas City beer scene has in only one stop, so try out a few flights of beer at a few different locations. Some of my top picks can be found in this list.
