Our Story The Brews Visit Contact
Ness City, Kansas

Beer that earns
its place at
your table.

Small-batch craft beer brewed with intention in the heart of Kansas. Every pour tells a story of local ingredients, patient fermentation, and the kind of flavor you can't rush.

Built on conviction,
not convention.

Sheepdog Brewing Co. started with a simple belief: that great beer doesn't need a big city to thrive. Nestled on South Court Street in Ness City, we brew for our neighbors first — using locally sourced grains where possible, water purified through our own process, and hop varieties chosen for character over convenience.


Our taproom is designed to feel like a place you've known forever — warm, unpretentious, and honest. Whether you're a seasoned hophead or just discovering craft beer, there's a seat for you here.

Currently pouring

Our rotating taplist changes with the seasons. These are the staples you'll find any night of the week — plus whatever we're excited about right now.

Amber Ale

Sheepdog Amber

Our flagship. Toasted malt backbone with a quiet hop finish. Designed to be drunk, not admired. Smooth from first sip to last.

ABV 5.4%
IBU 28
Glass Pint / Flight
Brown Stout

Prairie Night Stout

Dark as a Kansas midnight. Notes of chocolate, roasted coffee, and a hint of vanilla. Pours silky and lingers longer than a summer evening.

ABV 6.2%
IBU 35
Glass Pint / Flight
Pilsner

High Plains Pils

Crisp, clean, and dangerously drinkable. A German-style pilsner made with Kansas courage. Pale gold with a bone-dry finish that begs for another.

ABV 4.8%
IBU 32
Glass Pint / Flight
