"The biggest thing is people who would default to other brands don't have that here," said Kim Kavulak, co-owner of the brewing company. "They are forced to try something new and invariably are pleasantly surprised at the new flavor or new option they have now. We've seen some of those people grow."
Located in the Shadow Lake Towne Center at 7474 Towne Center Parkway in Papillion, the Nebraska Brewing Company is working hard to differentiate itself in a market of craft brewers and restaurants.
Wholly dedicated to spreading their love of craft brews, owners Kim and Paul Kavulak opened the brewhouse five months ago and have since produced 17 different styles of beers.
A natural extension of their home brewing hobby, since opening in November, the husband-wife team has made great strides in creating craft brews and introducing them to customers that may not have experienced small batch quality beers.
"We're not just here to make beer, we're here to make exceptional beer that people will remember for a hell of a long time after they've left the building," Paul said.
The beers are definitely the stars. Paul, along with fellow brew masters Dean Dobmeier and Tyson Arp, has created a core of beers that are always on tap, as well as a variety of brewer's choice specials.
Nebraska Brewing Company also has a full menu, with many of the items utilizing beer in their recipes.
The core currently includes the India Pale Ale, Eden Amber, Eos Wheat and Cardinal Pale Ale.
The Brewer's Choice beers loosely follow the seasons and include one beer that is exclusively for members of the Ale Nation, the company's brew club.
