| - CAUTION: Do not drag the tasting flight to move it, pick it up!
Due to the design of the flight, it makes it fairly easy to spill. They try to warn everyone of this, but I was too eager to drink my beer and spilled a bit before the warning was given. This is apparently a common problem as other people around me said they did the same thing.
At $10 for a 6 beer flight, this is definitely the way to go if you want a sampling of everything Bad Beat currently has to offer. I'm generally drawn to IPAs, but the 2 standouts for me were the amber ale and the hefeweizen. The hefe was really interesting with hints of banana, but it wasn't too overpowering. And speaking of overpowering, I thought the basil pale ale was a little heavy on the basil. It definitely had an interesting and unique flavor, but I don't think I could have drank a regular sized glass of it. But I do give Bad Beat kudos for stepping outside of the box with their flavor combinations. All in all, pretty decent beer. They do have some other beers on tap, and I was happy to see they were supporting Henderson's other local brewery, Joseph James.
The atmosphere here is pretty chill, and I was shocked to see how crowded it was! From my experience, Henderson bars are generally pretty scarce, but this place draws quite the crowd! Obviously the beer plays a big part, but it also helps that they have darts, shuffleboard, old school video games, and even cards against humanity! The food truck on Saturdays is also a nice touch.
This is a bit off the beaten path among all the industrial warehouses, but it's definitely worth checking out. I know I'll be back, and I look forward to trying their future seasonal beers.
