| - I should just say up front that I'm not a Vegas Strip kind of gal. But there was a brewery right off of the Flamingo habitat, so we felt obligated to check it out despite it's location within the Flamingo casino.
Sin City adheres to Reinheitsgebot, or the German Purity Law, for their beers. While I respect that, it doesn't make for very exciting brews. They only have five beers, so we tried their IPA and Oktoberfest. Served in plastic cubs, we found out after they were poured that they were buy-one-get-one-free. Beers were $7 each, which isn't great, but with the bogo they were $3.50 each, which is pretty good. But we didn't want two of each beer. So I'm not sure we came out ahead, really.
The IPA was mildly interesting; it was slightly hopping, a little fruity, but without the bitterness. The Oktoberfest tasted like a textbook Oktoberfest. The crowd was decidedly Vegas (fake boobs, obnoxious drunks, loud music, etc) and the beer was only alright. I don't anticipate ordering/buying their beer if I ran into it, and I definitely wouldn't make a trip back here, but it was okay.
