10 Best Breweries and Beer Places in Paradise

"Beer District Brewing is the combined forces of Jim Doyle and Clyde Lipp, who together have won dozens of homebrew competitions around the country over the past 10 years. The new venture has 21 ambitious brews on tap, covering a lot of ground with small-batch recipes and a beer list that changes frequently. The operation, which opened in February, is already drawing especially strong attention for its dark beers."

"Appropriately named, Beer District Brewing is located at the top of the Arts District in Las Vegas, which boasts 5 other Las Vegas breweries within a half-mile of each other. Hooray for walking between the Las Vegas breweries!. A lengthy tap list can sometimes be seen as negative: jack of all trades, master of none."

"This microbrewery and taproom located in the Arts District offers an array of its own beers such as a Russian Imperial stout, a Scottish ale, a dopplebock, and more. Online ordering available."

"Located about a mile from Old Town Las Vegas (aka Fremont), Tenaya Creek Brewery is one of the award-winning Las Vegas breweries with chill vibes and good craft beer. Enjoy a flight of 5 or a pint of beer off of their large list of in-house brews and several guest taps. Their Pilsner won gold at the Great American Beer Festival and is one of the few craft pilsners that we have found to really enjoy."

"After dinner, head back downtown to Tenaya Creek, a long-time Las Vegas brewery — it originally was located where PT’s Brewing is now. The taproom feels like so many of the nation’s taprooms: solid beer and low-key vibes, unusual for Las Vegas where most bars have gaming. While you’re in the neighborhood, you should check out the Neon Museum, which is only a mile away."

"Even those who are not a hop head are still in luck at this hop-forward brewery, which produces not just citrusy IPAs and herbal pale ales, but also reds and Dunkelweizens. Food trucks, a large bar, and a patio round out the offerings. Also at Tivoli Village."

"Banger Brewing sits right along Fremont Street, one of the most eclectic, interesting, and happening streets in all of the United States. Fremont Street is Old Town Vegas and dates back to when Las Vegas itself was originally founded. It was the first paved street in Sin City and even had the first traffic light."

"Beer styles at this brewery, named for partner/brewer Michael "Banger" Beaman, are rarely conventional, with twists such as a jalapeño Hefeweizen or a watermelon wheat. Online ordering available. Find it at Neonopolis on the Fremont Street Experience."

"DeeDee and Tony share their wheelchair accessible cruise to Alaska and Canada aboard the Carnival Miracle, which they call the "trip of a lifetime."

"The super-fun, passionate, and talented team at CraftHaus is enthusiastic to share their craft with visitors. The owners were inspired by the beer culture they saw while making their way across Europe, so visitors to the Artisan Booze District can have a truly international experience. Their beer is described as “traditional, but tweaked,” and the team is dedicated to building the Las Vegas craft beer community."

"Husband-and-wife owners, who claim to be partners in business and life, came up with the idea for CraftHaus Brewery while traveling through Europe (where many good ideas are born). And almost just as much as they love serving great craft beer, they also love talking about the craft of beer!. Their Resinate IPA is a year-round offering, but don’t skip over it."

"The Arts District’s CraftHaus offers a small patio at the front and 24 taps of beers to drink on site."

"Those who are out in the Northwest area of Las Vegas looking for a hidden gem might come across a small establishment known as Dee’s Donuts. While gazing at a beautiful park such as Floyd Lamb, people might think there is no way a donut shop will be nearby. Dee’s Donuts is here to impress."

"If you’re way out in the northwest visiting a hidden gem of a park like Floyd Lamb, you may think you’ve left civilization. There couldn’t possibly be doughnuts anywhere in the area."

"I've noticed since their other location open and new workers have been hired, my orders have been consistently wrong. Still good donuts though!!"

"Sure, you can order regular doughnuts at Glaze, but instead go fancy with an apple fritter, green tea glaze with toasted pistachios, maple with bacon or one with M&M toppings. The red velvet with cream cheese is divine."

"Words can’t even begin to describe the deliciousness of this brilliant creation. But Glaze doesn’t stop there. Other flavors include green tea pistachio matcha and blueberry cinnamon toast crunch."

"I live so close to this place but never knew about this place. It took an Elite Yelp event to bring me here and I am so glad I was a part of that!"

"If your children love to explore the outdoors and want to know what it might be like to walk through a rainforest, this free rainforest atrium at the Mirage Hotel might be just the (free) ticket!. The atrium features a 20,000 gallon saltwater aquarium with tons of aquatic wildlife, and just behind the aquarium is a tropical rainforest complete with lagoons, a waterfall, and tons of stunning tropical plants, flowers and more. Kids who love gardens and the outdoors will love to imagine they’re heading through a real jungle as you make your way through this free indoor rainforest garden."
