For Vegas, this place is a bargain with $3.75 pints (versus $6 for a bottle of cheap beer on the Strip). However, the beers were just above average and the food suffers from the nobody-in-the-kitchen-gives-a-damn attitude that I found in quite a few Vegas restaurants, both on and off and the Strip.
It was a lengthy cab-ride (about $22) from the Strip, where I stayed this time. Table service was slow. We ordered nachos as an appetizer, which arrived fully dressed (salsa, sour cream, guac) but with most of the cheese UN-melted. My wife sent them back, and rather than remaking them, they were re-fired under the broiler to a charred mess, additional salsa, sour cream, and guac were layered atop the grossly cooked first layer of the same mess, and they were brought back to our table. Our ribs were tough…I can make ribs at home that fall of the bone as can my mother-in-law who incinerates everything why can’t a restaurant?
Beers were OK (I tried three), but nothing to write home about. I get that Vegas is a craft beer waste-land, but that doesn’t to me mean that we should elevate what is (at best) mediocrity to greatness. If you have to have a craft beer in Vegas, this is a good option, but otherwise I would recommend visiting your favorite bar at home before you leave and again upon your return rather than thinking you’ll have a great craft beer experience here.

A very nice brewpub located near the downtown area. Beers are good but not great and the food is generally very good. Prices are much more reasonable than on the strip.

This place is the best deal in Las Vegas. My favorite beer at this brewpub/casino is the Marker Pale Ale with the Black Chip Port a close second. The regular brewpub lineup is available at the main casino bar with full pay video poker. Play video poker and the craft beer is free. Just leave a $1 tip and they will be keep them comming. The food at the brewpub is OK. I had a prime rib burrito that was huge and fairly tasty. The prices at the main bar are cheaper at $1.75 for a 14oz glass. Overall, my favorite place in Las Vegas.

This is my favorite all-around brewpub in Vegas. It is located inside the Main Street Station casino, so my review will blue the lines a bit.
First, they have good beer. The pale ale and porter are my favorites in the standard lineup. The seasonals are frequently outstanding. Imagine being able to play cards all night and having a waitress bring you free pints of barley wine for $1 tip. Well, you have to imaging it because your memory will likely be a bit fuzzy the next day.
There are two waitress service bars in the casino. One is from the brewpub and services that side of the casino. The other is at the main bar and serves the other 2/3 of the casino including the tables. The seasonals only come from the brewpub bar. As a table player, I have no problem getting the cocktail waitress to make the special trip to the brewpub bar to get me the current seasonal. Doubling up to $2 tips probably helps a lot with that.
The brewpub also has a happy hour from midnight to 7am with $1 drafts for when you need to pay for beer in order to save the cost of the free beers. The brewpub itself has no gaming so it is a perfect getaway when you need a break.
Room and meal comps are easy to come by to make this a great place to stay. I just love going to a brewpub with great beer, 24 hour entertainment, and a bed upstairs when I’m finally ready to crash.

Right in the heartland of the city, plenty of casino and similar action going on in the same building. The brews were decent, and the weizenbock really solid. Food met my expectations. Although I only stopped to check NV off of my states list, it turned out to be a good pre-redeye flight stop.

Visited in June of 07. Good clean spacious place with brew tanks behind the glass. Wife and I sat at the bar because we had food at Casino buffet earlier. Bartender was always there to answer questions and had five on tap that day. Good spot for a guy like me while waiting for the inlaws as they were taking in the freemont experience. Also seeing part of the Berlin wall incorporated into the restroom wall was one attraction to see in vegas got two for one.

Large open space with lots of people eating and drinking. It was quite busy when I was there but didn’t find it overly noisy. I didn’t eat and only stayed for 1 pint. Despite sitting at the bar, I still had to flag down one of the many bartenders to pay for my beer. A little too busy for my taste but I guess that’s good for them.

20 oct 07. Across the street from the last bus stop for the Duece (double-deck tour bus). High ceilings, two bars. Copper tanks visible from resturant on other side of glass windows. Sushi, pizza (which sucks), burgers, steak. Loud & noisy, but still a brewpub. 12 flatscreens! Too Noisy. Weizenbock good, Pizza sucks...

After walking through the nice bright casino you come to this massive brewpub. Even when it is busy it doesn’t feel crowded. About 6 or 8 big plasmas to catch the football highlights. Didn’t try the food, but it looked nice going out. The beers were all very good, and the seasonal "strong beer" (a weizenbock) was excellent. Worth a hike off the strip for a change of pace and a good beer. Our service wasn’t too hot however, as we had to practically set off flares to get our waitress back to our table.

Very big bar in the casino. Waiter was friendly and when he saw me rating the sampler tray he gave me another sample of an additional beer not on the sampler. Did not try the food. They seem to take the beer more seriously than the Monte Carlo.
