Big Dog’s Brewing Company Summerfest rescheduled August 26th

Big Dog’s Brewing Company, local brewery and draft house, is a great place to have a good time, especially if you’re a craft beer lover.

There are plenty of  fun events at Big Dog’s every week, with live music, trivia and some amazing festivals throughout the year.  And if you’re the gambling type, they have a casino as well.

Big Dog’s Brewing Company’s first batches of beer started in a modest brewhouse located in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. Dubbed the name “Holy Cow!” in 1993, it wasn’t until 2003 that the brewery was relocated to its current location just 8 miles northwest of downtown Las Vegas.

Today they develop some of the most unique and flavorful beers in Las Vegas. With an emphasis on consistent core brews and exciting seasonal/reserve beers, their brewers put a new spin on original, local beer flavor.
