I'm new to the area and glad I found this local brewery. In a world obsessed with IPAs (bleck!), it is hard to find porters and stouts. This one doesn't disappoint!! Instead of the typical grudging one or two stout choices, I found 7 here at Neon! It was enough choices to actually get a flight. Of course I did and loved how each shot was arranged on a cactus board - nice touch. I have talked with the owner now twice since of course I returned for another visit, and I love how passionate he is about his brews. Very knowledgeable and inventive with his blends. The ambience is great and cozy with choices of tables or high seats with bench tables or couches as you play games. And the music is at a level that you can actually hear other people talking to you. I appreciate that. I highly recommend this place. read more

Wow all I can say is this is one incredible brewery!! They have all the styles of craft beers from traditional lager and Belgians to IPAs, stouts (especially barrel aged) and fruited sours that are core beers and two new Friday beers every week so you'll never get tired of their list!! They have a pretty good food menu especially for a brewery and a great lineup of food trucks always Thursday Friday and other random days through the rest of the week. One great thing is they're family friendly and cater to kids with a Nintendo setup and couch area with games including Jenga. Happy hour beginning of the week, stein Sundays, Wednesday Thursday trivia.. do not miss this tucked away brewery!! read more

Finally got a chance to try Neon Desert Brewing, the Arts District spot which moved into the old Bad Beat location. I was quite a fan of Bad Beat and the people who ran it and was quite surprised and sad when they left for the Arts District but upon venturing in to Neon Desert after work last week, my fears were extinguished. Despite sporting new signage, the place looked almost exactly the same and even still has trivia Thursday nights, along with a themed trivia on Wednesdays. I got a chance to talk to the owner/brew master and had a short but delightful conversation with him about why he chose to move to Henderson and was able to get some insight into the other breweries in the area. Now, I say this in every brewery review I write, but I'm not a big beer drinker but could easily get behind the two that I tried here (Murican Lager and Pie Fighter). Murican was exactly how you would think it would be, light, crisp, refreshing, and totally crushable, similar to all of those tried and true American light beers but with actual flavor. It's the perfect beer for those hot Henderson days. Pie fighter was something different entirely, something I wasn't expecting, but something I appreciated. Neon Desert is a welcome addition to the Henderson Booze District! read more

They moved into the old Bad Beat Brewing (the old sign is still on the building, but the Neon Desert sign is on the door). Brewing up great beers and churning out two new ones every Friday, it's definitely worth a stop (and while you're in the plaza you can hit Crafthaus brewing too). Our beertender was Savannah and she was great (but then again she always is!) and she served us up a flight with four tasty beers (they also have a six beer flight). Stop in and see Savannah, say hi to Jimmy (the brewer) and grab a cold delicious beer. read more

Formerly in the Las Vegas Arts District, this brewery recently swapped locations with Bad Beat Brewing, here in the Henderson Artisan Booze District. It maintains the legacy of its predecessor, with a dedicated local crowd that provides a lively vibe. It is spacious, with a variety of seating options. Service is friendly and personable. During my most recent visit, I enjoyed six-ounce tasters of four different beers: - Why Is the Rum Always Gone? (Russian Imperial Stout) - Holden's Rye Stout (Russian Imperial Stout) - I Wanna Big Stout (Belgian Double Stout) - Strong, Dark, and Brooding (Belgian Strong Dark Ale) Circles of Helles is what I'd like to get during my next visit. It is a Munich helles lager infused with hot peppers (serrano, jalapeno, habanero, Carolina reaper, and ghost). Similar to Thai cuisine, you can get it in eleven different degrees of heat. read more

Went to go visit Henderson Booze District's newest addition - Neon Desert Brewing, who just moved from the Arts District and into the place of Bad Beat Brewing's former occupancy, who themselves are currently in the process of moving to the Arts District. So this is a little switch-a-roo for them right here. Though it's Neon Desert Brewing now, some of Bad Beat's signs are still present inside and out, but that means it takes some time to get everything moved out. Everything inside was exactly like what it was when it used to be Bad Beat, for now at least. The only thing that was different here was their beer selections on tap, in which there were 13 on tap, and in their to-go fridge. We started off with a flight, with four beers each. We got the Dunkelzahn's Secret Munich Dunkel (#6), the Coconillacan Imperial Stout (#8), the Sin City Amber Ale (#9), and Mojave Brewing's Millions of Peaches Cider (#10), in which the Mojave Brewing selection was a guest tap. I don't like stouts, so my boyfriend ended up having the Coconillacan all by himself, describing the beer as a stout with a very chocolate-y flavor. The Sin City Amber Ale was ok, but the taste was a little too dark for me. I like the lighter beers better than the darker beers, so I really enjoyed the Dunkelzahn's Secret and the Millions of Peaches Cider. The Dunkelzahn's tasted like a Hefeweizen and the Millions of Peaches Cider was incredibly fruity. I also decided to take a four-pack of Hefe Vice City (German Style Hefeweizen) home with me, since they were having a St. Patrick's Day sale where all to-go cans were 17% off. I asked for a sampler of this first before buying it just to make sure that I would like it first. And yes, I did! I can't wait to try this in full when I get to it! Other to-go cans that they had available were Sin City Amber Ale and Neon Haze IPA. This was a great brewery to visit and I hope we'll get to come back again another day! read more

We frequented Bad Beat while it was in this location and the new business Neon Desert were kind enough to honor the rest of their "mug club" memberships. We stopped by and tried a few glasses and a 4-beer flight to try their options. They were all wonderful, just like BB was before them. Flight: Sin City Amber, Scotch 80's Edinburgh, Cocconillacan, 11 Circles of Helles. Pours: Dunkelzahn's Secret (mug), Their raspberry lemonade (I don't think it was called Punk Lemonade) that was first tapped May 10th. All very good. The wife enjoyed the amber, which is rare for her. If it's not tart and fruity, she doesn't like it. She said it felt like a refreshing summer beer in her tastes. The scotch was great, I enjoyed the flavors. As expected, but done well. I'm a dark beer guy, and love stouts, but I'm NOT a coconut guy. The stout had a sweet forward coconut, a little chocolate perhaps, and then a finish that was a bit more bitter than the sweetness prepared you for. Wife liked the first sip, but not so much the aftertaste. I was the opposite. The dunkel was wonderful. Exactly perfect, exactly what I both expected and wanted. It was great. It was the kind of beer I could drink daily and not get tired of it. Her lemonade concoction was good. Tart from the lemonade, with a fresh strawberry finish. I thought it was good, but tarts aren't my thing. She adored it. Now let's talk 11 Helles. Wtf, I loved it, but I can see how many people wouldn't. I spoke with a brewer and he explained that they used whatever peppers were fresh and available. This batch was made with ghost, reaper, and pepper X--the hottest options. You order by spice number, 1-11. They dilute the full octane 11 to make your lower choices. I didn't catch what it was diluted with, another beer in the same class. I'm a spice guy. I eat ghost pepper and reaper sauce regularly, but I also know some of those sauces can dumb down the spice (still, few friends can regularly handle my sauces). This isn't a brag, just and explanation. At the brewer's recommendation, I started at 5. It was spicy, yes, but no more than what I'd consider an average hot sauce--my average hot sauce. The wife's eyes watered and she asked why I hated her. I went back up for an 11 because of morbid curiosity and natural heat-seeking tendencies. After the 5, I couldn't get much more spice or burn. It was good, it was hot, but it didn't feel twice as hot. Perhaps I was burned out. The flavor was great, honestly. It smelled almost like a jalapeno popper. A fresh one. Fresh pepper and something else, cooked. The flavor was pure fresh pepper. It was very good. My burn was experienced at the back of my throat. A high-heat but still comfortable burn, not anything like heartburn or reflux, but a spice burn at the bottom of the throat. I rather enjoyed it. read more

Tried this place with a meetup group for trivia and it did not disappoint. I tried a few of their beers. I started with the Nonde! Japanese rice lager, which I liked as a lighter option. I found it mild and pleasant, and could see this as a good session beer for the evening. The CocoNillaCan, an imperial stout loaded with the flavors of coconut, vanilla, and pecan, was on my radar, however, at a whopping 10% and the potential of a lot of sweetness in a cup, I decided to try it a different way. The "Gold & Night" is Neon Desert's version of a Black & Tan. I ordered the combo of CocoNillaCan and Blonde Logger (lager) as my winning raffle ticket beer. I really enjoyed it and would likely order it again. I was disappointed that the Helles option was tapped out (Heaven and Helles) so I'll have to try it another time. They had a spicy version, Circle of Helles, but I wasn't in the mood for the spice! I was allowed to try a sample of the prickly pear option, a flavor I am very particular about, but it tasted a bit watered down for my liking. Trivia was a lot of fun, even though I didn't know 85% of the questions. They made sure to give us folks who don't like answering Derek Jeter questions a supply of dopamine regardless in the form of raffle tickets for each beer purchased and giving out fun little prizes. Cool, casual, spot. Definitely good for groups and hanging out. Cheers! read more

Beer District is another Arts District brewery. It's one of the newer ones around here. Kind of a small draft list but they're newer so it's okay. Has a few different kinds including the typical IPAs but also heavier ales. They have coffee too. I was around so I came in. It's a small place. There's not a whole lot of room. It's amazing they have as many beers as they do. What they have is also good. Also has coffee and they put it in the beer. Very good stuff. I like the BD Barrel Aged Wee Heavy. It's $8 for a pint. This is a Scotch ale, and it's heavy so yes it can surely fuck with you. Lots of funny names. They're clever and quite witty. It's worth it ordering just for these alone. They have the My Dog Ate My Homework Blueberry Saison. Also they have a few snacks in bags. It's not much but just basic snacks. They also often have food trucks. read more

So last brewery visit on this trip was Neon Desert Brewing and my 223rd brewery overall. When we arrived at about 4pm there were only a couple people inside. We grabbed spots at the bar and were quickly helped by the young lady working it. My flight included Heaven is Helles, The Litigator, Ain't No Fest For The Wicked, Dunklezahns Secret, Coconillacan, and I'm A Little Bourbon Nitro Stout. No individual reviews this time unfortunately which is actually because the reason I didn't was the people. The bartender ended up hanging out and chatting with us, then Jim the brewer came out. Very friendly crew here and the beer was very good. The Coconillacan and the nitro stout were probably my favorites. SWPFTD would have definitely enjoyed the fest bier. I heard rumors of Neon Desert moving locations so I hope when I'm back in the area I can track them down for a pint. And to the bartender, I apologize for not remembering your name but you were a pleasure to talk to. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! read more

We wandered into Neon Desert Brewing on at Saturday night around 6:30. Besides our friendly bartender, we were the only ones there. If you really knew me you would know that I dislike beer. I had a great cider!!! My partner, loves beer, and going to Micro breweries. He had Chocolate Porter that he enjoyed. The place was clean and orderly. They had a lot of their own brand of beer on tap. Looks like a great place to go to gather with beer drinking buds. read more

Pretty solid brewery here in Vegas aside from HUDL Brewing. This brewery had an extensive beer menu with various types of beers.They had a lot of stouts and hefes. There's also some hazies, lagers, sours, selzter. We tried just about almost everything on the menu. The male staff was really nice and friendly. He offered to let us sample beers. Only indoor seating. It was a windy day...Quite hot and stuffy inside the brewery. read more

Ok so I finally got a chance to get in here and try some of the beers! I'll have to come back, as they have so many, which at first worried me, but as I was to soon find out, my worries were put to rest! Service was efficient and the two ladies working who are co owners were polite and friendly! I was doing flights, so I just started at the top of the extensive menu and started working my way down! Pretty much everything I tried was well made, tasty, and true to style! Some were just outstanding! I was very impressed with all of the offerings, and really enjoyed my time there! The ladies were so patient as I was there a bit past closing time finishing up my second flight! I highly recommend this brewery to anyone traveling to Las Vegas who loves good beer! It is definitely worth the 4 mile walk each way I made to go there! read more

Neon Desert Brewing has taken over the old Bad Beat Brewing location on Eastgate in Henderson. So far, I've tried the Early Out IPA, the Hefe Vice City, and the Neon Haze. I've been impressed with everything I've had and highly recommend that you visit.

"It's a lot easier to start the day when you know it will end with beer" says The Beer Chicks, firmly believing that "beer is good!" This brewery feels like a match made in heaven, they are literally on the same block as The Lighthouse. If you've heard of serendipity, you know that life has a clever way of dropping blessings in the most unexpected moment, and for us this place was a totally pleasant surprise! Located at the Arts District on Main Street, Neon Desert Brewing offers some of the finest selection of handcrafted beers. With 23 house taps and 21 beers, there's just so much variety and the menu changes all the time. Not only is this an inviting atmosphere to chill but with their superb and friendly service, they certainly know how to attract a good crowd. Inside is quite cozy, there's enough seatings for couples, group meetups and you can even host a small private gathering. The menu is found on the table and order is placed at the bar. You can opt for a 12 oz, 6 oz, or taster. For something light, a good option would be Heaven is Helles and Hefeweizen Vice City. Our personal favorite is the Strawberry Kiwi, this one is their newest offering, it's a light fruity flavor that taste so nice and smooth. We've also tried a couple of amusingly funny named drinks. "I'm A Little Chocolate Short & Stout" (6 oz, $4) has chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla and lactose with an ABV 7.8% and IBU 17. This one has a deep chocolate flavor, it's good! Another great one is "We Don't Talk About Brew, Noi Nitro" (6 oz, $4), it's a golden milk stout with cinnamon, vanilla, and is lactose aged on Brazilian coffee beans from dark moon coffee roasters, this has an ABV 5.6% and IBU 5. As for food, the brewery doesn't have a kitchen. They use a restaurant venue that's off property to make food and the order is placed through a third party app called Second Kitchen. There's a QR code to view the menu and after purchase, it typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes of wait time before the food arrives via Door Dash. Surprisingly, the food delivered was very delicious! It's coming from Letty's de Leticia's Cocina which is a restaurant that's not far from the brewery. We really enjoyed our drinks with the Quesabirria Tacos ($6 each) these were satisfying and so filling! The chipotle corn masa tortilla was crispy, filled with tender birria and melted oaxaca cheese, I just love dipping this taco in consommé. The Guisados Taco ($5) was also flavorful, however it is a small serving and knowing this now, it's best to order at least three. Overall, this brewery was a great experience for us and we'll surely be back for new drinks! read more

Looks like it's time to reopen the Yelp account. Beer District Brewing is a fairly new business that launched back in February, just before COVID-19 prompted the shutdown of society as we knew it. During the past two months, they gained a temporary restaurant license to get pickup service going, so they took advantage of that to reopen at 50% capacity on the first day allowed by the governor of Nevada. Located on the north end of the Arts District (no relation) and boasting a modest but very welcome parking lot, these guys were certainly promising based on my preview tastings of beers and early visits. The interior sure looked and smelled clean when I was there before, and walking in, I saw few changes aside from proper table spacing and bar closure (and a touchless hand sanitizer dispenser). It wasn't crowded at the time either, thankfully, but I'm sure that other local fans of craft beer are anxious to step out and will stop by very soon. Both house and guest taps have full price options (mostly $6) in the 12-16 oz pour size, but half-pours ($3) and tasters for flights ($2) are only available for Beer District brews. For now, you have to place orders with servers who walk to your table, which is mostly just fine by me because I got my flight prepared properly and accurately. I did have to use a particular third-party app or wait for the TV menus to cycle back around to the beer lists due to intentional removal of paper menus. All of their IPAs and lighter styles are solid and worth trying, but for me, their emerging stars are their stouts. Although some have adjuncts such as cacao nibs and coffee, they're not like the hyped pastry stouts at all. Their Vegas In A Bottle served on nitro had rich but bitter chocolate flavor, and the silky mouthfeel imparted by the nitrogen was luxurious. CocoNillaCan had some nice vanilla and coconut going for it, and both regular and nitro versions of Vegas Nights had nice coffee tones. I look forward to seeing more of what Beer District can do. They're a bit removed from the other breweries of 18b, but they're worth the drive or walk if you're a beer fan. Can't say I've tried their grilled cheese or quesadilla yet though. read more

This brewery is a vibe, especially if you have Kelly as your bartender! She has the energy and personality to keep you wanting to stay and drink. We got the flight of 6 and hands down our favorite beers were 1) cherry limeade berlinger and 14) coconillacan. They had a guest tap from Able Baker where all proceeds were donated to ALS. They don't have a kitchen in house but you can place an order using a QR code with Letty's and it will be delivered quick. We highly recommend coming here if you're visiting the Arts District in DTLV. read more

Post Covid review! What a time to open a brewery... but, Beer District seems to be doing it right. You can tell that the Brewer has a real Passion for the art of beer. The darker beers have A flavor profile for coffee lovers and beer lovers alike. The coffee used in these beers are sourced locally and thoughtfully. The IPA's are hoppy and delicious. The space is welcoming and bright. They have some snacks in the bar, like a grilled cheese sandwich and a quesadilla. Say have food trucks regularly and host a Trivia night at least once a week. Can't wait to see how they grow! read more
