Well I love craft beer, so I was anxious to find a good place to check out new beers in Vegas. I read up all the reviews for months before we finally moved here and it seemed like Aces & Ales was definitely the place to be. We finally were able to visit the bar for the strong beer fest, and the beer list is AWESOME. The prices were pretty average for craft beer ($8 for 12oz), but I noticed that they have a really great happy hour - $4.50 for 12 oz - every day from I think 10pm to noon. The staff was super friendly and helpful, but they were definitely a little overwhelmed with the big crowd for the strong beer fest.
The minuses are definitely the Boulder Highway location - it will have to be a special occasion for me to drive all this way. Also, I wish the ambiance had a little more to offer than an old Big Dog's Tavern with the lights up super bright. Overall, 4 stars, mostly because of the general lack of craft beer in this town.
