Killsner

Kills Boro Brewing Company is an independent craft brewery rooted in Staten Island, New York. Since 2017, we’ve been crafting beers that honor the borough’s deep brewing history while pushing forward with creative expression, technical precision, and a commitment to quality. Our name pays tribute to the “kills”—the tidal waterways named by Dutch settlers—that once supported a thriving brewing scene led by German immigrants nearly two centuries ago. That legacy lives on in our lager program, which has become a defining part of our identity. Through double decoctions, extended lagering, and the use of heritage ingredients, we aim to create clean, expressive beers that bridge tradition and modern craft. In addition to lagers, our portfolio spans hazy IPAs, mixed fermentation sours, bold stouts, and seasonal experiments—each brewed with intent, curiosity, and care. In 2025, we opened our taproom and restaurant at 814 Richmond Terrace: a space designed to bring our beers to life, pairing them with an elevated food menu and a full beverage program. Set against the backdrop of Staten Island’s North Shore waterfront, our taproom is a place to gather, taste, and experience everything Kills Boro has grown to represent. Kills Boro is more than a brewery—it’s a community, a movement, and a reflection of the borough we call home. We’re proud to be part of New York City’s dynamic beer scene and even prouder to help put Staten Island on the map, one pint at a time.
