ABOUT BUSEY BREWS
In the fall of 2019, Kyle and Janice Busey acquired this smokehouse and brewery with the inspiration and motivation to make it sensational. Father and son brew team Steve and Tony Conrad have elevated the brew system and keep 18+ house brews on tap at all times. And parents Kim and Buzz lent their design and woodworking skills to help create the cool and casual dining environment you are now enjoying.
With over three decades of restaurant and hospitality experience, the Busey’s and their amazing brewers and staff have a passion for delicious food, craft beer and excellent service. Also, The Busey Brews For Good program has raised over $10,000 for local and global charities since its’ inception in 2019.
Our smokers run 24-hours a day to ensure fresh smoked meats and meat alternatives are delivered to our customers. All of our beer is brewed on-site, from crisp ales and IPAs, to malty browns and stouts. Plus, our brewery is partially powered with on-site solar.
