(Downtown, Lee’s Summit, MO)

Scooter’s 1462nd bar, first visited in 2021.

This brewery and restaurant/taproom grew from the Grains & Taps home brewing store a few blocks down the street. Features a huge tap list of their own brews.

I tried their Reluctantly Crouched (Barleywine), Dry Stout, Emperor King Comptroller (Imperial stout), Reluctantly Crouched Blackberry, Gullywomp Stout, and Cheeky Mate (English mild)

Black Stag Brewery

(Downtown, Lawrence, KS)

Scooter’s 1450th bar, first visited in 2020.

This was a bit frustrating, because their online menu was out of date and they were out of absolutely every beer that both my brother and I pre-picked. And the printed menus we were handed weren’t quite up to date either.

What I finally wound up with was a flight of Thing 3 (chile beer), Uncle Paul’s Nitro Stout, Bamburgh Castle Ale (brown ale), and The Mad King Oktoberfest.

Free State Brewing Company

(Downtown, Lawrence, KS)

Scooter’s 1449th bar, first visited in 2020.

I actually visited this place around 30 years ago, not long after it opened. But I was not quite 21 yet so couldn’t count it as I did not have any beer. Now I can finally count it.

My flight consisted of Hoptic Nerve (American IPA), Oatmeal Stout, Alley-oop Dunkel, and Deep Groove (imperial porter).
