Tenaya Creek Brewery — Las Vegas Breweries

Spotlight Summary

About This Brewery

Tenaya Creek Brewery is one of Las Vegas's oldest and most celebrated craft breweries, founded in 1999 and now operating from a larger production facility near Downtown Las Vegas. The airy taproom features up to 28 taps pouring a wide range of house beers — from IPAs and pale ales to oatmeal stouts and Belgian-style triples — alongside curated guest taps and a beer-to-go fridge. There's no kitchen on-site, but rotating food trucks provide nightly eats, and the pet-friendly patio makes it a laid-back destination for locals and visitors alike. In 2023 the brewery joined the Beer Zombies Brewing family, bringing fresh collaborations while preserving the Tenaya Creek legacy.
