Best bottle shops in Kansas City?

gomers.

 

Also, prolly a long long shot, but does Absence of Light sit around any bottle shops?

 

I'm not sure which is the best, I'm from Minnesota. I visit KC about once a year, and one of the Gomers stores is a must visit. I've been to the one in Lenexa, great selection, and this past visit I stopped at the one on 75th.

Hyvee stores carry a good selection, but if you want expert advice, stop by Gomers. They will let you know what's new, what's no longer carried (damn you Schlafly APA!) and what's still sitting around, but sought after.

 

Lukas on the MO side. Crane does distro to all of KC. Gomers is good as well, but just doesn't have the size that Lukas has.

 

Hy Vee in Missouri only as I don't think KS hy vees can sell beer.

 

The Missouri Lukas is just 1/4 mile from Martin City Brewery....they have some cool stuff to try and good pizza. Across the street is the the sister bar that has non-martin city brews. I think it's worth a stop, especially if you're at the Lukas that real close.

 

Reply back and let me know what you think. I get to KC about 5 or 6 times a year and usually try to make a Martin City/Lukas stop. I've never been disappointed with either....

 

Isn't Lukas a "superstore" with location in Denver and St Louis as well as KC? Hardly seems like a "small business in the area"
