When J. Rieger & Co. opened their new distillery in the former bottling plant of the Heim Brewery in historic Electric Park in 2019, they wanted to serve a bier with a connection to their iconic pre-Prohibition building. So, they asked us to brew a lager bier that reflected the Austrian-Bohemian heritage of the Heim Family, whose brewery was once the largest in Kansas City.
Prior to Prohibition, the Heim Brewery in historic Electric Park was the largest brewery in Kansas City. In 2019, J. Rieger & Co. opened their new distillery in the brewery’s former bottling plant. To honor the history of their new building, Rieger wanted to serve a bier with a connection to the Heim Family and their Austrian-Bohemian heritage. Thus, Heim Beer was born. Heim Beer is brewed with 100% Pilsner malt from Bavaria and world-renowned Saaz hops from the Czech Republic- a tribute to the 19th century brewery traditions that the Heim Family brought to Kansas City, and a reflection of the high-standard of lager excellence from KC Bier Co.
