Kros Strain Brewing, La Vista

I just moved here from the East Coast and have been looking for a local brewery that has really good IPAs. This place hit the spot. I really enjoyed all of my taste samples. Highly recommend the tropical fairy nectar and the koala tears. Tropical fairy nectar is their 22 spin on the fairy nectar, and the koala tears is a banana vanilla sour. When I have family visiting from the east coast, this is one of the spots I'll bring them to.

To start I'm giving the brewery such a low rating for the simple fact that your current staff SUCKS (Brianna), simply put. You can have a huge brewing operation, fun merchandise, everything all pretty and canned or bottle beers to go and spend probably somehwere between the 500000 to million dollar mark when its said and done in getting this place going and still have a horrible experience do to the fact it really seemed like your bartender seemed rushed to close even an hour before closing time, then doing a very aggressive "last call" at 830pm! Simply based on the fact your staff could care less about someones overall experience when even first coming into your brewery. We even asked for suggestions when first ordering several flights do to the fact the digital beer menu board would not even stay up long enough to even see what was on tap. So we reverted to asking BRIANNA her suggestions. To which she answered, it's your choice I dont know what you like.....suggestions Brianna, we like suggestions! Since we had never been here before, she even kept looking at the people behind us almost as to try and rush us along and asked in a smart tone. "So do you know what you want yet", so we had to guess through half the beers and then finally asked her politely to just pick a few of her favorites, to which she did seeming very displeased. We attempted get a wide variety to try but honestly they were all just....decent to ok. (No offense) But your staff ruined the experience, and we knew it was not only us when another couple the next table over even commented on how aggressive Brianna came around outside and loudly called "last call". Well folks, on this one its your call, your money. It up to you to decide if you will go check this place out. I do however know myself and my friend will not waste our time money or breathe on this place again. OVERRATED ON ALL ACCOUNTS IN MY BOOK!

sat at the bar. enjoyed the double ipa and the pizza food truck. everyone was friendly and witty. was a good time

Professional bar staff. Not overly chatty with us. Pro tip: no food here!! But they are cool if you order and get it delivered. So if you're hungry you might want to order a little earlier and time it. They were nice enough to let me get a shot of the beer pour when I asked. The flagship flight was great. $10.75 for 5 (4oz) pours. You get to choose 2 while the other 3 are static. My friend loved the place and wants to come back. He also likes the merchandise. They have some interesting offerings including a lot of their bar glasses for sale, shirts, hats and even dog treats made from the leftover grain. Parking is available in a large lot.

Kros Strain is certainly the best brewery in the Omaha area by a long shot! They have some really unique beers and they are never afraid to experiment. I’m generally not an IPA drinker but Kros Strain is the only place I would even consider drinking an IPA. The bartenders, Tammy, Sam, Regan, Nicole, Lacey, Brianna, and company, are the best! They are always very friendly and they make us feel at home. Given that my wife and I have been regulars ever since we moved to the area eight months back, I’m slightly embarrassed to be posting this review so late but I’m glad I’m finally getting around to it! If you haven’t checked out Kros Strain then you absolutely must.
