Central Standard Brewing — Restaurant in Wichita

Great vibe, prices, and staff. Be prepared to bring your own food in or have it delivered.

That's a new concept for me. I've been to restaurants that were BYOB, but never a bar that was Bring Your Own Food, but we made it work.

Never been in a bar where kids were welcome, either. That took a little getting used to, and I'd be willing to bet, or hope at least, that fostering a more family friendly atmosphere helps keep behavior in check.

The band was great, really talented. Preten Friend, was the band, a bit of rock-a-billy, bluegrass, CSN&Y sound with original material.

Inside and outside seating with a huge garage door separating the inside from the outside. The door was closed because it was a little chilly outside, but there were plenty of people sitting outside and the front entrance door was wide open, so on cool night you might want to bring a light jacket.

All beer is served from the counter, and one of the staff is constantly on the move recovering empty glasses, and they tend to empty pretty quickly because the beer is delicious.

I stuck with a CSB staple, the Wizard of Hopps. You can often find it in most local restaurants, but it's always a treat getting it directly from the mother ship.

The decor was funky hanging light, plants the size of small trees, and a completely out of place painting of a seascape which just added to the cool and eclectic vibe.

Go, enjoy, drink, and get there early or you won't...

Ok, I was told to post this as a rating not a question. I was referred to this place by a local, due to their 6th anniversary. Unfortunatlely there where no food trucks nor band playing. It was friday. Ambience: friendly, great mood, great staff. The usual. On the beer: citrous, astringent selection. Not very much to offer. I guess the thing going now is for papaya like flavors. If you have ever eaten papaya you know your partner wont be happy at night. On the price: a little on the high price , on my impression it was a bit pricey for 4.8 AVB. Yes prices are hiking up. Food: no food truck that night, just pizza which was actually really good. I am not a professional Cicerone, but I do a lot of traveling due to work and go to every tap room or brewery I come across. I was not blown away by any means. Will give this place another shot next time in...

This is my favorite brewery in ICT. Rotating taps keep things interesting - if you need to mix it up, they usually have a couple IPAs of some sort, a sour, and a stout. A different food truck is there each night. If you aren't in the mood for whatever truck happens to be there, CSB offers cheese and meat boards that are delicious! Check Facebook (more up-to-date than their website) for the schedule and current tap list.

Sometimes CSB features live music, but they always have a cool patio and games to play if you are feeling some old-school board games or yard Jenga.

All-time favorites include "Girlfriend" (a regular), "Born with Teeth" (a stout), and every one of...
