Saturday marked the first annual Beer KC Strong Ale Fest held at the McCoy's / Foundry parking lot. We had 28 breweries participate and over 30 different beers that all clocked in at 8% ABV or more. The weather couldn't have cooperated any more than it did, making for an excellent day to be outside drinking some incredible beers. Here are a few pics from a rough day of heavy drinking:
