Tasting Room at J. Reiger & Co.

(East Bottoms, Kansas City, MO)

Scooter’s 1511th bar, first visited in 2022.

We found out about this distillery complex less than a week before COVID lockdowns started in early 2020 and were anxious to visit, but then forgot about it by the time things re-opened and it was only due to needing to pick up a bottle of gin that we suddenly remembered and decided to pay them a visit.

There are actually four bars throughout the complex — one on each level plus one outside. The outdoor bar was closed for the winter, and since we were on a shopping trip we decided to stick with just the tasting room for today’s visit and check out the other bars in the future when we have more time.

I had a Heim beer and a lemongrass gin & tonic.

Knuckleheads Saloon

(East Bottoms, Kansas City, MO)

Scooter’s 193rd bar, first visited in 2006.

This is by far one of THE coolest places in KC. If you like the blues at all, you HAVE to check this place out. Indoor and outdoor stages, huge amounts of indoor and outdoor seating (and the indoor seating is easily converted to open-air when the weather is nice) and great talent.
