Holiday Room Rates
Due to the extremely high volume of customers visiting Kros Strain Brewing in December and the high volume of event room bookings, there will be an additional charge of $100 for the room fee in December. The minimum bar tab (via Hosted Tab, Pre-Paid Drinkt Tickets and Kegs) will be an increase of $100.
Kros Strain Brewing strives to provide a high level of customer service to all of our guests. As a result to accommodate the high level of bookings our staff will be working overtime to produce beer, service guests and accommodate all bookings to the high standard we hold at the brewery.

What is the room rental fee?
***Please note when reserving the room, the fee is calculated into the final total. If you choose Hosted Bar Tab or Cash Bar, you will only be paying the room rental fee. An estimated guest count is EXTREMELY important when booking your reservation. Why? We strive for excellent customer service and we will supply the appropriate number of bartenders based on your guest count. We want your guests to enjoy your event, not wait in long lines for drinks.
What happens if your guest count increases prior to your event? Please notify Doug, as soon as possible (at least 2wk prior to your event) so we can obtain staff for your event. You will be charged the room fee difference on the day of your event. The minimum bar tab will increase as well. Doug: dveskerna@krosstrainbrewing.com
