On tap at Sin City, Planet Hollywood. Comes light gold with an average white head. Aroma of grain and grass. Taste is light grass and hops. Light and crisp. Drinkable.

Plastic cup. Just not very good. Taste like an average monster lager. Actually everything about it is like an average monster lager.

Tasting flight at Miracle Mile location. Into plastic to-go cups: classy. No head. Regular gold. Super thin and watery. Corn flavor. Tastes like an adjunct lager. Not terrible, at least not skunked. Sweet and kind of fake sticky palate.

Pale yellow, slightly grainy aroma. Sweet malty flavor, very lightly hopped. A drinkable light beer.

Sample at the Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes location. The beer is a clear straw color with a thin somewhat fizzy white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing. Aroma of malt and hay. Light body with flavors of grassy hops, sweet malt and a bit of fruit. The finish is short with a pale malt finish. Slightly below average overall.

Picked this up as a roadie going from point A to point B. Pours a light golden yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is grassy and lightly hopped. Taste is surprisingly well bodied although taste is light and grassy. It’s a light beer, what do you expect?

Tap at Venetian location. Clear light pale yellow appearance. Light grainy pale lager nose. Pale straw flavored lager. Grainy flavor.

Las Vegas is not an easy place to find a good beer. Luckily, there are some Sin City outlets around to grab a decent draft from time to time. Sampled at the one at the Miracle Mile shops at Planet Hollywood. Pale yellow, slight fizz. Slightly sweet malts with a hint of honey, a touch of hops for balance but no real flavor. Not much else. Although a pale lager, there was some character, and the beer was well made - very clean. Although not exactly my thing, it was pretty darn good for the style.
