Sparks, Nev. -
February 24, 2022The Nevada Department of Agriculture (NDA) and Made in
Nevada have partnered to create the first Nevada Craft Beverage Passport
highlighting establishments statewide. This passport features more than 30
Nevada craft beverage makers throughout the state and encourages individuals
over 21 years of age to visit and support participating locations. Passports
will be available at all participating locations on Feb. 25 and a special
launch event will be held at IMBIB Custom Brews in Reno with a remote
celebration at CraftHaus Brewery in the Arts District of Las Vegas.
The Nevada Craft Beverage Passport is a guide to a fun,
educational and rewarding time exploring Nevada’s craft beverage establishments.
All participants in the Nevada Craft Beverage Passport make their brewed,
distilled or fermented beverages locally, and locations using locally sourced
agriculture ingredients are highlighted. Each participating establishment has
their own page in the passport with information about their craft beverages, a
section to take notes and a designated space to mark the visit with a stamp.
Stamps for the 2022 passport can only be collected through Dec. 31, 2022. The
more locations stamped, the bigger the prize passport holders can redeem at the
end of the year. Some locations are also offering drink and product specials
for passport holders.
To celebrate the inaugural passport, the NDA and Made in
Nevada are partnering with IMBIB Custom Brews and CraftHaus Brewery to host the
Nevada Craft Beverage Passport release event. The event will feature a
specially crafted beer from IMBIB made from Nevada-grown ingredients that
highlight the craft beverage industry in the state. Event details:
