As promised, here is my Trip Report about the beers I found and where I found them. As expected if you want Bud, Bud Light, Coors, Coors Light, Miller Light, etc. you can get them at any casino at the table. At each place I play I would ask the following when the nice beverage person came around:
"What do you have for IPAs?"
and
"What are the darkest beers you have?"
I figured I could get the most info that way. Often the answer to the IPA would be, "Yes we have the IPA".
Most often a place would just have 1 IPA and usually it would be Goose Island.
As it turns out everybody has New Castle and almost everybody had Guinness (in a bottle, not the can or draft). So no fun porters or stouts. Also no local pub beer at the table. But where did I play and what else did I find?
- Goose Island IPA
Golden Nugget
Mirage
Excalibur
Ballys
I think Planet Hollywood had it too.
- Saint Archer IPA - never had this before found it pretty good!
Planet Hollywood
One other casino had this but I can't remember where
- Ballast Point Sculpin IPA
Harrahs
I believe Flamingo had it as well but can't be sure.
And sometimes you just gotta have a Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri:
For my money ($1 a drink) I believe the best value is the Sculpin. I also do like New Castle and Guinness so a nice change up with those. And speaking of value..
Play 4 hours at Ballys (during a 24 hour period I think) and get a free Paris buffet voucher. Fully transferable and never expires. Play 3 hours at Planet Hollywood between 5:00 am and 2:00 pm get a free buffet voucher for their buffet. Also fully transferable and never expires. Good stuff!
