Beer lovers who happen to be in Las Vegas on Friday November 14 will be able to indulge in a beer pairing menu at Lagasse’s Stadium at Palazzo Resort that is heavy on the Goose Island beers.

Personally, I get a bit too excited about Goose Island Matilda and even though It is found widely these days it always feels like a special treat. Couple the good beers with the atmosphere at Lagasse’s Stadium and you can bet on a good night.

Beer lovers headed to Vegas, you are in luck this September with a multitude of beer tasting events on the calendar including the Downtown Brew Festival and BLVD Brew Fest.

The Downtown Brew Festival will be held at the Clark County Amphitheater and will feature more than 150 craft beers from over 50 breweries from around the country.

As we sit on elegant couches inside of the Delano’s new Franklin bar and lounge with dimly lit lighting and a soundtrack to match, Sarah Johnson orders a round of Timmermans Oude Gueuze for the table.

My question as to where to get sour beers in Vegas was met promptly with her ordering the Timmermans. The tart, sour beer satisfied my thirst as Johnson, a soft spoken and brilliant woman of 36-years-old, discussed her vision for broadening the beer landscape in Las Vegas.

It’s another beer extravaganza weekend in Vegas and this time Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino is hosting this BEER Weekend, which will be held September 12-14. This new BEER fest will have a full smattering of activities including a panel discussion on the craft beer revolution, a five-course meal paired with specific brews, a beer brunch and more.

Calling all beer sommeliers, it’s time to sample a plethora of the world’s finest brews. The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is once again bringing Desert Hops: An International Beer Experience to the Boulevard Pool this September 27.

This year, more than 150 beers from approximately 25 countries will be available to sample -- from Japan and the U.S. to Australia and more.

Imagine yourself walking down The Las Vegas Strip mid-July, with temperatures effortlessly reaching over 105 degrees and the sun beating down on your back. It's not always the most refreshing feeling when you're on vacation and just trying to see some sights. You blindly walk into the new Harmon Corner center after deciding "enough is enough" and welcome the rush of sweet, cold air conditioning.

Sometimes it seems like there are two kinds of people in this world: Those who love beer. And people we don’t really understand.
