April is one of the nicest times to be in Nevada. The spring desert flowers are everywhere. Right now the nights are warm and it is nice to venture out and do some final tours of some of our favorite locations before we leave.
On Friday night we headed downtown to Fremont street. We stopped at Main Street Casino which has the best microbrewery in town, The Triple 777. If you ever have a chance to go downtown make sure you stop here. We ordered the beer sampler (5.00). It is 6, 8oz glasses of the following choices:
HIGH ROLLER GOLD
Triple-7's Flagship beer is produced for those who demand the very best. This light-bodied wheat beer, the most popular of our lineup, serves up cold and refreshing. The highest quality ingredients and brewing techniques are used in every batch to produce a beer worthy of our best customers.
ROYAL RED LAGER
Drinking a glass of Royal Red is almost as enjoyable as hitting a royal flush! Our Vienna-style lager has a distinctive toasted character balanced by "noble" hops. Crisp and delicious, this easy drinking lager will have you feeling like royalty.
MARKER PALE ALE
A beer made for the adventurous at heart. The aroma and flavor of fresh, American hops stimulate the taste buds while its clean bitterness cleanses the palate.› Not for the weak hearted, our pale ale has the highest alcohol content of any of our beers.
BLACKCHIP PORTER
Only a porter this good deserves to be named after gaming's $100 black chip. Its smooth, roasted character puts it in a class of its own. Designed for dark beer lovers, the blend of five malts give it a complex flavor with chocolate and toffee undertones.
TRIPLE-7 BREWMASTER SPECIAL
This Brewmaster Special features a monthly rotation of some ot the finest creations ever developed.› Among the favorites are Raspberry Wheat, Triple-7, Hefe-weizen, Indian Pale Ale, and the famous Black Cherry Stout, a silver medalist at the 1997 Great American Beer Festival. Our sampler was the Hefe-weizen.
All the beers tasted great. We both decided to go with the Porter. Tim thought this tasted better than Guinness. I love the full flavor of the Porter. We decided to order an appetizer and I picked the crab artichoke dip served with toasted bread. I think secretly Tim questioned my choice of appetizers but once he tasted it he wanted me to find out how to make it.... Tim's second beer choice was The Higher Roller Gold.
Friday and Saturday nights, Fremont street is full of a lot of activity. The night we were there they had a couple of live bands performing. Great free music entertainment. I think I was having more fun just watching the people......
