If I were spending a week in KC, would the beer in St Louis be worth making the 4 hour drive there and back in one day in order to visit a couple of the breweries?

I don't think I would say it's a can't miss. Side Project and Perennial are probably the best St. Louis has to offer. Unfortunately, the Side Project Cellar opened up not long before I moved and I never got the chance to visit. There are several other good places, 4 Hands, Urban Chestnut, Civil Life, and Schlafly to name a few. Second Shift is good too, but is well outside the city and not a convenient stop. Side Project and Perennial both produce world class beers, but I don't think I could justify traveling 4 hours there and back in one day. That may just be me and my nearly 40 year old self though.
