A couple of weeks ago, Tap List noted local communities that made a “best of” beer cities list. One of those cities, Overland Park, made the list largely due to its sheer density of craft beer-centric bars.

Now it’s getting another brewery.

Stockyards Brewing Co., located in Kansas City’s West Bottoms, is making plans to open a second location in Overland Park. According to the Shawnee Mission Post, the Overland Park Planning Commission has approved a special use permit.

The brewery plans on opening a 25,000-square-foot facility at 10310 Mastin St., near Skate City. The area has historically struggled to keep tenants and Stockyards hopes to change that.

The West Bottoms brewery currently has a brewhouse and offers beer on tap plus wine, cocktails and small snacks. Stockyards is looking to expand on that with an even bigger brewhouse plus a kitchen in Overland Park. The new location also would offer indoor seating, expanded outdoor seating and still offer beer, wine and cocktails.

While full details of the construction process have yet to be released, the plan is to have the new location fully operational sometime in 2022. 

Beer Releases

Red Crow Brewing Co. — 1062 W. Santa Fe St., Olathe, Kansas — has a brand new extra pale ale out on tap. Named after the first woman to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, Mary uses the veteran hop blend put together by Yakima Chief Hops. A portion of the sales from this year’s blend goes to K9’s For Warriors. Mary rings in at 6% ABV and 45 IBUs.

Limitless Brewing — 9765 Widmer Road, Lenexa, Kansas — continues to roll out dark beers for stout season. Their newest release, Just Give Me A Reason, is a big 9% ABV imperial stout. You’ll get plenty of cinnamon and maple syrup flavors, making this the perfect breakfast beer.
