Craft Beers Take Up Residence in Kauffman Stadium

April 2, 2015 – Kansas City – The familiar sights, sounds, and smells of Opening Day will have a fresh new taste starting in 2015. For the first time, fans of the American League Champion Kansas City Royals will be able to enjoy over 75 different craft beers inside the new Craft & Draft experience at Kauffman Stadium. The new space is the result of an expanded partnership with Boulevard Brewing Company and their wholesaler, Central States Beverage. 

“We’re excited to be joining with the Royals and Central States in bringing more craft beers to Kauffman,” said Jeremy Ragonese, Director of Marketing for Boulevard Brewing Company. “The organization has demonstrated a clear commitment to creating a welcoming new space that will feature a wide assortment of specialty beers. It’s a big win for fans of Boulevard, craft beer, and the team.”

In addition to local favorites such as Boulevard’s Unfiltered Wheat Beer, Single-Wide I.P.A., and Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale, an assortment of beers from Brewery Ommegang, Lagunitas, Founders, Mother’s Brewing Company, Santa Fe, Breckenridge, and many others, will also be available to patrons—making Craft & Draft one of the best craft beer destinations in the Major Leagues. 

Craft & Draft replaces the former .390 Club, located in the left field corner of Kauffman Stadium.
