Strip's Chicken & Brewing (Craft Beer & Brewery in Merriam KS)

Strip's Chicken & Brewing in Merriam, Kansas, is a rare breed that proves you don’t need a road trip to find excitement. Their menu boasts a surprisingly wide range of gluten‑free fried delights, and the results look as good as they taste—crispy, golden, and entirely guilt‑free. If you’re craving something to crunch on while you ponder life’s big questions, the onion straws are the obvious choice, a salty, aromatic side that even the most hardened carnivore will applaud.

The real show‑stopper, however, is the peach wheat beer. It’s a bright, slightly sweet brew that sits comfortably between a summer fruit salad and a well‑crafted lager, making it the standout in an otherwise impressive line‑up. For the indecisive (or the adventurous), the beer sampler offers a quick tour of the house’s best, letting you sample the peach wheat alongside other cleverly balanced creations. All of this is served with a wink and a smile, confirming that at Strip’s, quality and fun are not mutually exclusive. (The staff’s relaxed confidence is as refreshing as the first sip of a cold pint after a long day.)
