Boulevard Brewing Co. Taps & Tastes at Current Landing

Boulevard Brewing Co. is bringing Taps & Tastes to Current Landing on Saturday, October 17, from 1 PM to 5 PM. It's a beer tasting event presented by Boulevard alongside the Kansas City Current, and it's moving into the brand-new Current Landing along the riverfront.

Taps & Tastes first launched in 2015 as an anchor of the Boulevardia festival, which was built to showcase Kansas City's influence on the culinary world. This edition is a reimagined version of that experience, bringing together some of the best the Midwest has to offer under one roof. You'll find beers, beverages, and bites from favorite craft breweries, distilleries, and chefs across Kansas and Missouri, with live entertainment and games to keep things moving between tastings.

There are two ways to do it. General Admission is $75 and gets you unlimited beer and beverage tastings, curated bites from KC restaurants, and a souvenir tasting glass. Early Admission is $125 and adds an hour of head-start—you get in at 1 PM while general admission starts at 2 PM—along with skip-the-line entry and exclusive tastings and bites. The whole afternoon runs until 5 PM, and it wraps up with a big-screen watch party as the KC Current take on Utah on the road.

So, if you're into the local craft scene, you can spend the afternoon working your way through the breweries and distilleries from across the region. The event is at Current Landing, 1460 Front Street, Kansas City, MO 64120, on Saturday, October 17, from 1 PM to 5 PM.
