Fairy Nectar is the beer that put Kros Strain on the map — a hazy IPA with the kind of devoted following that has people asking for it by name across the metro. It’s the flagship of a brewery that’s leaned all the way into the modern IPA era without forgetting the rest of the menu.
The La Vista taproom is the mothership, but the Draft Works satellite at 1209 Millwork Ave in Omaha brings the beers north to the Millwork Commons development — a smart second front in one of the city’s fastest-changing districts. Between the two locations, Kros Strain covers the metro pretty thoroughly.
For hop heads, this is essential Omaha drinking. For everyone else, it’s proof the IPA wave reached Nebraska in full.
