Kelly Lohrmeyer
Beer Seller Mas Fina!* Kelly came to Tallgrass by way of St. Louis. She was a bartender there at one of the great craft bars in that great beer town. It was there she began her love of great beer and found Tallgrass. Kelly sells Tallgrass beer in the Midwest area. You might see her at events in Lincoln, Omaha, Wichita, and of course, Manhattan. When she isn't selling beer you can find her biking, cooking, and watching Breaking Bad. She can often be found playing frisbee with her 3-legged dog, Tripod. Favorite Beer: Oasis with a side of Halcyon. Now that's livin'. Favorite Bands: Mumford & Sons, The National, Radiohead Crazy Talent: Kelly can turn her eyelids inside out. Why? Just because she can. Ask her, she'll do it.  | Kelly is going to ask Gus if we can get Tallgrass on tap here.

Tallgrass Tours
& Events...
We're trying to get you more tours in 2012. We like to show off our little brewery, but we also like to brew beer, and sometimes that gets in the way. If you're going to be in the Flinthills sometime in the future, just drop us an email. You can always visit our tasting room, but sometimes a tour is not an option. Especially when the Oompa-Loompas are working.
Speaking of tours, we now have our official "Tallgrass Tour Glass" available at every tour. They're just $5 and are available only at the brewery.
Q: Do I have to buy a glass just to go
on the tour?
A: Of course not. You only need to buy a glass if you want to sample our tasty brews, but a tour without samples, that just ain't right.

Hail to the Hops... 
We're pretty busy brewing, talking about, and drinking beer, but we hear there is a presidential race going on. We thought: "What if a beer could run for president?" I bet more people would vote.
Who would vote against the Beer Party? Not us.
*Ale dropped out of the race because of allegations
against his moral chararter. It turns out he had been brewed over 300 times.

We Want to Sponsor Something Weird
Really weird, please  People are always asking us to sponsor things and we like that. We're a small brewery, and we know what it's like to get overlooked, so we want to help a very strange event get the push it needs.
If you have an unusual event that needs some recognition, we want to help.
A few ground rules: 1) The event has to be open to the public.
Sorry no weddings or backyard BBQs.
2) The event has to be in one of the states where we sell Tallgrass.
We do like to sell beer. (map of Tallgrass states)
3) It has to be "beer friendly." No surgery competitions or baby beauty contests.
3) It has to be weird...but legal...mostly.
What you get:
1) Annoucement of the event in this newsletter.  We send this out to a bunch of people who'll go to anything...if there is good beer there.
2) Mention of the event on our website and facebook/twitter. We have lots of fans who'll do what we ask them...as long as good beer is available. 3) Cool poster. We will design something nice for you that will have people flocking to your bizarre event to drink Tallgrass. 4) Tallgrass Stuff. S ome stickers, maybe a hat or two, whatever we got lying around. What are you waiting for? |
A Tallgrass t-shirt for $8!
Christmas is long gone and we've got stuff left over. Oasis, Halcyon, and Tallgrass ladies Tees just $8!
We also have some of those cool Halcyon wall tins $10 off & other cool stuff.

Q: Where does beer come from?
We brew the beer, but we don't deliver the beer. Every 4-pack you buy at the store and every pint you quaff out of a keg was put there by a delivery person.
These guys and gals don't get enough recognition in my opinion. If it weren't for them, we would have a lot of our beer just sitting around going to waste. A real tragedy. They're at your favorite bar, sometimes before you're even awake. They work long hours and carry a ton of beer. Literally!
Next time you're out and you see one of these faithful servants-of-the-suds expertly maneuvering their beer-laden handtruck through a crowded bar, take a moment and say, "Hey! Thanks for bringing the beer."
They like that. If you're too drunk to say that, try clapping. If you're too drunk to clap, then it's time to call you a cab.
My point is (I do have one) it takes a bunch of folks to get that beer from our tanks to your hands, and I raise a pint to them. If it weren't for them, I would have to drive around in my station wagon dropping off kegs and cases, which would really slow down the brewing cycle.
Here's to all the great people who get Tallgrass Beer where it needs to go.
Cheers!

unsung heroes of the
beer world on his
appointed rounds. |
