    Outside patio

    Sandhills is our local brewery in Mission that we've been going to since they opened! They don't serve their own food but they have food trucks most weekend evenings and snacks available to purchase. They also allow outside food on days there aren't food trucks, which is really nice, especially for families with young kids. They're very family friendly but it's also a great spot for a date night too. The staff is great and we love spending time here and supporting a local business.

    I feel like Sandhills is an underrated brewery in KC. It's not the largest brewery but they have a wide variety of beer and so many great options. The brewery isn't super big but they do have a small outdoor space for seating. There is not table service so you do have to order at the counter. Also, please take your empty glasses to the counter people (huge pet peeve of mine). Every staff member I've encountered has been professional and nice. They also don't accept tips because the employees are actually paid decently. If you do tip, those dollars are donated to a charity that rotates on a monthly basis (I believe). They also don't serve food but will occasionally have food trucks so watch their socials. All of the beer offerings are named after birds. My favorite is a stout-Raven. It's always super smooth and a great cold weather beer. I also like their sours. Lovebirds is another favorite. But they also have IPAs and lighter beer options. Definitely stop in and check them out!

    Stopped in last night for a few beers, The staff was very knowledgeable about the beers they offer as well and information on their take home beers and growlers as well as the Mug Club that they offer. Staff was friendly to carry on a conversation with customers as well during "downtime". I am not a huge IPA person but I had three of the IPAs last night (Wren, Flamingo and the Green Heron) and was surprised on how good they were.

    All I can do is sing the praises for Sandhills Brewery. On the street, in my car, while I'm in their taproom sampling the delicious beers. Specifically, their Mission location, a wonderful area with a great hometown feel. Everybody is super friendly, patrons and staff alike. The location has an easygoing vibe and you feel at home the moment you walk through the door, whether your first or umpteenth visit. But let me get to the good part. The beer, of which there are several varieties, is top notch. And let me say now, so that all may hear, their Raven stout is one of the best beers I've ever tasted.

    Awesome ambience and really good beer what more can I say will definitely be back. I love the growlers.

    Sandhills Brewing & Duck Donuts is a must try . I've never thought about pairing donuts with beer. But I have to say it's a great combination. There are a variety of flavors to choose from. My favorite beer is the Chickadee , paired with a blueberry-lemon donut. Is definitely a good sweet tart balance . I can't wait to return to both business for more .

    I had a blast at the event that was held at Sandhills. The event was donuts and beer. I must say I haven't had this combination before and was eager to try it out. There were 4 samples of beer that were perfectly matched to a donut. The guys serving the beer were pretty cool and explained each sample of beer. Meanwhile the donut host was serving the best donuts, they also explained each donut. The music that was playing was up to date and easy to listen to. I definitely see myself and friends coming back to some beer while unwinding.

    I can't believe I didn't know until recently that this little brewery existed so nearby to where I live! A friend of mine invited me to brewery yoga which I think they offer on a monthly or semi monthly basis and it was SO FUN. The brewery itself is fairly small but clean, and inviting with huge windows that allow in a great deal of natural light. The Yoga instructor was very kind and really emphasized folks moving at their own pace, which I think is key in any yoga practice. After yoga everyone was able to select one beer to enjoy. I picked a hazy ipa and enjoyed it enough to get a crowler to take home. While deciding on a beer I chatted with the owner and learned that they also operate a sister brewery in central Kansas and I love how local they are. I know KS doesn't always have the easiest liquor laws so it's really nice to have a great little brewery on the Kansas side that is also offering things like yoga to the community. Can't wait for another opportunity to return!

    Sandhills is a great place to spend a Saturday afternoon. I have been frequenting it more because of their Pints and Poses event they do on second Saturdays where they host yoga. It's a fun ambiance, and their rotating selection always has something delicious.

    Great local mission brewery. Right in Johnson drive. Good beer good vibes. They do to go beer too which is great

    Scottish & English Mild brews? Yes!! My American Irish husband loves these styles and he was gulping them down by the pint full. Between the 4 of us, we tried their IPA, wheat, saison, Berliner Weiss, Scottish (original, barrel aged and lite) and some guest taps. Perfect place to meet some friends, have some beers, play some games and/or make some new beer loving friends along the way! Bartenders don't accept tips, similar to Boulevard Brewing, so thank them by being kind and coming back :)

    BeerSauce Road Trip - Sandhills Brewing We drove through a snowstorm to check out a kitschy hipster region of metro Kansas City and discover the unique flavors of Sandhills Brewing. The brewery isn't marked well so you might pass it even with Google Maps directing your path. Once we got inside, we were engulfed in a cloud of mash scent. Sandhills was brewing! We were excited to see the breadth of flavor on the draft menu, from a barrel-aged pilsner to an experimental hazy IPA to a 9.8% Wee Heavy, and the list went on. This spot deserves it's higher customer reviews. We'll definitely be back soon!

    Visited Sandhills Brewing on the Tour de Bier charity ride organized by BikeWalkKC on September 18th, 2022. Great selection of home-crafted beers! I especially liked their "Chickadee" Berliner Weisse beer which was really good and refreshing. They have indoor seating and some outdoor seating too. The staff are great and will help you with the right selection of beer just for you. Check it out!

    Are dogs allowed?

    Hi Mary, unfortunately not. We intend to add a patio in 2020, which will be dog friendly but dogs are not able to come inside the taproom.

They have a full menu of food, lots of beer, and even cocktails and wine for non beer drinkers. Everyone we interacted with was super nice and friendly. We didn't order any food but I was definitely tempted. We stuck with beer. They lean more towards German styles and they are really well done. I ordered a cream ale-Lickey Chewy that features strong butterscotch flavors. This beer was my introduction to POG at a Brewfest a few years ago and it's definitely one to try. I also tried the Eisbock and the stout. All were really good. I'm going to make an effort to return. And I plan to try the food and maybe catch some live music. If you're in the area or just looking to go somewhere outside of the city, definitely check them out!

The board will list the ABV for each beer, as well as the pour prices, and you can choose from anything between lighter ales to heavier stouts.

Don't miss their fresh-hopped varietals, such as the recent 'Earth & Sky', which gives you that right-off-the-trellis hoppiness.

Making unique craft beer is always a labor of love and Friction really shows you how they get it done.

But you're coming for the beer, and the beer is really great. Limitless has gone from a location in a light office park to its own standalone building, complete with patio and plenty of space. There are generally half a dozen or more of their own craft brews on tap ranging from IPA through porter/stout. You may have even had some of their flagship beers elsewhere, such as JoCo Juice, a hazy IPA or Rolling in the Deep, a double New England IPA. I myself go for malt over hop, so I find their Marzen to be one of my favorite beers. If they have their Mexican lager on tap, then I also suggest sampling that as well. A flight of four runs you $14-ish and is a great value, as the sample sizes give you plenty of opportunity to really get a feel for their offerings. If you find something you really like, then you can take four-packs home to go in cans. Limitless is open almost every day, at least until 7:00 and when the weather is nice, the patio was a must do. There are frequently people playing a board game or just enjoying the space, and while I don't want this to be just another noisy space, they could do with maybe a TV or two more. But that is just me being picky and since they are in the neighborhood, I like visiting whenever I can.
