Kalispell Brewing Company brings live music to Main Street
Grooves and Growlers
The Kalispell Brewing Company is packed full. The air buzzes as old friends reconnected, beers are poured for anxious customers, and acoustic bluegrass music drifts above the hum of conversation. In one corner, a family throws a birthday party for their 96 year old matriarch. In another, a three-piece band stomps out a rhythm. The only break in the flow of conversation is to applaud as the band finishes their set with a flourish.
