Here are a few ideas to help you celebrate at home!

Beers to Sip on

Kansas City

Not unlike the Chiefs, Boulevard Brewing Company is a hometown success. While Kansas City was once home to a healthy handful of small, regional breweries, many disappeared over the years, but this one remained. Nearly 30 years later, Boulevard is the biggest craft brewer in the Midwest, and their full-bodied pilsner, KC Pils, gives back to the community through beer sales. It’s hoppy and malty, and has a great story to boot.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa’s Cigar City Brewing produces wood-aged ales that give common brews interesting notes and flavors. Look no further than Cigar City’s Guava Grove — made with pink guava — and Jai Alai IPA (with notes of dill and vanilla). Another favorite of Bucs fans? The Florida Cracker White Ale, which is light, crisp and super easy to drink on hot game days and at parking-lot tailgates.
