Comped Drinks at tables (beer question)

I have been to Las Vegas a few times and usually drink bud light or corona while gambling. Recently I have aquired a taste for Boulevard beer. Has anyone had this particular beer comped while playing and if so where? Thanks

You can get whatever beer you would like, as in if they have it. I had Boulvard at the Planet HO I believe

Boulevard is crafted here in Kansas City at the Boulevard microbrewery and only distributed in the midwest. Its unlikely that you will find it in Vegas.




If the have it at the bar you will be fine. You have to figure that these places can only stock so much at a time. They also have contracts with certain brands so some times you can only get so much.





Doesnt hurt to ask.




Coming from the Microbrew highlands, Vegas is always a disappointment when it comes to getting beer on the floor. The regular see-through tasteless Corona, Bud, Coors, etc will be lined up for you. If you are lucky Fat Tire and Sierra Nevada are served along with Sam Adams. However, getting a good IPA, Porter, or heaven forbid, a stout.....just not going to happen.





After looking at the Boulevard Website, I would definitely track some of those down. I love that when asked about a light beer...they won%26#39;t brew one. Doesn%26#39;t look like distribute outside their area so don%26#39;t think it will be in Vegas. However, they will be at the ORegon%26#39;s Brewing Festival in the summer. Will have to try to make it this year.




I agree it can be tough to find a good beer in the casino. The one place I like is downtown at Main Street Station. They have a micro brew there with an excellent Porter. You can order one from the cocktail waitress and it is free just remember to tip. You can get the micro brew playing the slots or tables. They also have great drink service. Give it a shot. A lot of people shy away from downtown but it is a lot of fun down there.





Good luck and happy drinking,



Kevin




Better beer is downton. Besides the MSS, the Chicago Brewing Co.in Four Queens has a stellar stout that is sweet and easy to drink. Had a two for one coupon for 26 oz. cups. A good kick off to the night.
