Contradiction Looks like an IPA tastes like a stout. Just like its name. Its a contradiction to what your eyes see. Very good coffee "stout"
House IPA Standard IPA
Watermelon Gose Very suttle watermelon lemonade flavor. Not as sour as fantasy island. A sour for someone not big on sours.
Sourviciae Very pleasing. Tart and refreshing.
Mr. Tartacular's Fantasy Island My Number 1 choice. Very good, super tasty. You can really taste the mango and I am super pleased with it.
Bbq Bison bacon burger Excellent. The pretzel bun is a perfect compliment to the burger. My only criticism would be that the arugala should be on top so it doesnt wilt down and that there should be tomato on top to add some additional moisture to the burger. The fries that are included are seasoned fries (very graciously seasonsed, but it goes well with the strong flavor of the bison).
Hot wings oaxacan dry rub Excellent. Perfectly cooked wings with the right amount of seasoning. We ordered a side of the "House Hot" sauce and oh boy was it HOT. For me. However, it wasnt just hot it had great flavor and I mixed the house hot sauce with ranch to mild it down. I love hot sauce but this was a little much for me. After mixing with ranch it was delicious and tasty.
Alibi mustache pretzel. Thick boy. Shaped like a mustache. Sometimes thick pretzels arrive under cooked in some areas but this was perfect. A bit smaller for the price but very enjoyable.
Sierra was our server and face of the brewery tonight. She was very nice and easy going. Very friendly and happy. We have nothing but great things to say about her. She added to the pleasant and awesome experience at Alibi for our first time.
We will definitely be making this a top ten spot in Reno/Tahoe.
Just wish the county allowed dogs...
Read moreOne bartender stood in front of me, having a whole conversation with the folks next to me and ignored me until I was legit about to get up and leave. I'm still gonna get up and leave because at this point I've been trying to order food for like 15 minutes. And despite the fact that there's 4 bartenders, none of them are paying any attention. When I tell you that they are actively avoiding eye contact it's almost funny, but I haven't had enough beer for me to laugh because I can't get anyone's attention. I've gotten a single beer in the 20 minutes I've been sitting here, and I see that my card has tentatively been charged $11... I'd like to say, I'd like to stay and try all the beers, but I don't even know what all they have, because it's not even all listed on a single chalkboard. And there's no proper menu for beer and trust me, when I say that bartenders do NOT care. And let's be clear it's pretty dead in here. I'm 1 of 4 people seated at the bar...like...c'mon. It should not be this hard to get served. I'm literally at the bar, I'm not even at a random seat coming up to the bar to order. I'm sitting AT the bar. I definitely wouldn't come back here. And once I finish this beer, I'm not even gonna stay. And this speaks volumes that I've written this entire thing while sitting at the bar, yet still unacknowledged for food. I'm just going to edit to add that despite living in the Midwest, I've been to dive bars that are less trashy in this place. You guys are the real MVP of hoosiers out here in Lake Tahoe,...
Read moreShowed up and unloaded my family on a Friday about 4:45PM to get turned away at the door due to them closing in 10 minutes for a private party. Sick. So, load the family back up and leave. Came back the next night despite really wanting to boycott the place. Find its open seating and basically every table is big enough to seat 10. Guess what that means.. make friends? We grab a table that’s empty and are promptly joined by 4 already drunk guys. It’s not their fault, some pushy old man who wanted to eat dinner with his two dogs awkwardly edged them out of their table due to its prime “dog location”. They leave and we’re then joined by a family of 4 and two grandparents. No big deal, except I listened to estate planning before we up and left for a different table that’s appeared to be leaving. They didn’t leave, pulling out a deck of cards and playing for the next 40 minutes. We ended up eating our decent $22 burger that didn’t come with fries, and pretzel that was shaped like a hangover poop instead of a pretzel, while seated on a rock in the play area while the kids ran wild. This place has the location and over all idea to be great but its Bay Area influenced seating and subpar service make it a abomination. I just wanted to have dinner with my family, not someone else’s. I’m racking my brain to see this as any different than grabbing a 6 pack, some Burger King, and eating...
