Award Winning Boulevard Beers on Sale this Weekend!

This week we at WhichCraft are highlighting one of our favorite Midwestern Breweries by giving you the opportunity to bundle and save! Boulevard Brewing Co burst onto the craft beer scene in 1989 and took Kansas City by storm with a variety of IPAs and the now hometown favorite, KC Pils. Since then they have become a nationally recognized brewery with delicious year-round beers and sought after seasonal releases.

Beginning Friday, select Boulevard 750s will be reduced in price, and the more you buy the more you save! See promotional details at the top of this newsletter. $10.00 minimum price on all Boulevard bottles.


A big Thank You to all those who came out to Independence Brewing last Sunday to celebrate WhichCraft’s second anniversary. We at the shop could not have been more thrilled to be celebrating this milestone with you. The support of our customers makes all the difference. For those who were not able to make it, WhichCraft Anniversary Two glassware is available for sale in the merchandise section of our store.
