The Great Bend Chamber of Commerce staff and Ambassador’s Club hosted a ribbon cutting at 1305 Main Street to commemorate the opening of Dry Lake Brewing. Named after Lake Barton, Dry Lake is the first brewery ever in Great Bend. The brewery is entirely Barton County owned. Owners Kevin Burkey and Ryan Fairchild opened the brewery on May 6, with seven employees. 

The brewery is open from 3-10 p.m. Thursdays and from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. On days without a food truck offering food to purchase, patrons may bring their own food or have it delivered to the brewery. Go to the website for a list of days with food available as well as the menu offered on that day.
