Nebraska-brewed beer has enjoyed a whole lot of growth and attention in the past decade or two. There are plenty of hometown brews that we think beat out the big names, no question. One of our very favorite Nebraska breweries is Kinkaider Brewing Company, located just outside of Broken Bow on a picturesque farm.

Out here in the sandhills of Custer County, this plucky little farm brewery was started by four Nebraska natives who saw the potential for the area's crops in the brewing industry.

They joined forces to form Kinkaider Brewing Company, a name that pays homage to the history of this land.
