Las Vegas March Madness and Beer-cation

I am heading to Vegas and staying at the Luxor from this Thursday thru Sunday for the opening rounds of NCAA basketball. Any suggestions on places to get a good craft beer and not pay a 300% markup?

I also would like to pick up some beers I can't get in NC while I am there. Any suggestions on bottle shops or stores that carry good beer and anything that I should try to look for (seasonals/rarities) while I am there?

Thanks.

Get off the strip if you can. Will you have a car? Aces and Ales comes highly recommended.

I am debating renting a car for at least one day to venture around Vegas, but not too far.

staying in luxor your quickest bets are burger bar and a slice of vegas in mandalay place (the mall between luxor and mandalay) I hit both of those last month, and while you pay Vegas prices, they have a good selection. Pour 24 in NYNY is close also. Here's the Vegas master list:

You're at the less 'cool' end of Nevada for March Madness and a beercation.

Regardless, flexabull gives wise advice here.

freakin frogs is also a craft beer bar..... ellis island is a small brewery and casino.. i love there prime rib and beer special... not really a fan of their beer... more of the prime rib

Stayed in Luxor last month...be sure to hit Public House there. They have some good craft beer finds. If you want a bigger tap/bottle list, venture to the Public House @ the Venetian. Cheers!
