The Kansas City Flying Saucer will be hosting their 1st anniversary party this weekend.  It will be a great day as they tap a new beer every hour on the hour starting at 2 pm.  The highlights include Schlafly Bourbon Barrel Imperial Stout, Bear Republic Racer X, Avery Samael’s,  and Sierra Nevada Brown Saison.  Come out with your friends, enjoy the great beer, take home some killer beer schwag and celebrate 1 year of serving great beer to Kansas City.

We are very proud & fortunate to be a part of the American Craft Beer Movement. June 5th will mark our 14th Anniversary as your beer destination. We have seen some amazing changes in the beer industry during this time. Today, the American Craft Beer Culture is stronger than ever – thanks to you, for seeking out quality beer and understanding them.

I hope you will take a moment and watch this brief video.

“I Am A Craft Brewer” is a collaborative video representing the camaraderie, character and integrity of the American Craft Brewing movement. Created by Greg Koch, CEO of the Stone Brewing Co. and Chris & Jared of Redtail Media…and more than 35 amazing craft brewers from all over the country. The video was shown to a packed audience of 1700 craft brewers and industry members at the 2009 Craft Brewers Conference as an introduction to Greg’s Keynote Speech entitled “Be Remarkable: Collaboration Ethics Camaraderie Passion.” As is tradition for the CBC Keynote, a toast to the audience was offered. This time, the beers offered for the toast were all collaboratively brewed craft beers including Isabella Proximus, Collaboration Not Litigation, AleSmith/Mikkeller/Stone Belgian Style Triple, Jolly Pumpkin/Nøgne-Ø/Stone Special Holiday Ale, and 2009 Symposium Ale “Audacity of Hops.”

A re-cut version will be posted as soon as possible, and a program is in development to include even more of America’s amazing craft brewers. Please stay tuned!
