While kiddos are welcome at this Missouri brewery, management advises against bringing them on Friday and Saturday evenings when it can get a bit busy and rowdy.

Don't see anything you like on the snacks menu? Bring your own, or order from your favorite joint. The taproom doesn't have a full kitchen, so outside food is welcome.

You can even have food delivered right to your table.

Eat, drink, and play a few games, too. Grab one of the tabletop games - Scrabble, backgammon, or Battleship - and put your game face on.
