We love being part of the yearly traditions our guests share with their families!! Each year, folks can stop by the Bain to help us crack pine nuts for our annual Harvest Ale. Jake and Heather, two of our wonderful regulars, always bring their family to help out and, of course, to enjoy their free pints after!! Jake even sent us these awesome photos, and we just had to share them! 🍻

Moments like this are what the Basin and community are all about, and we’re so grateful for everyone who makes this tradition so special. Cheers to you guys for making this tradition so special! ❤️

Our Harvest Ale, created by Tom Young and Eric McClary, is brewed with local sagebrush, juniper berries, pine nuts, and honey. It's a true taste of Northern Nevada and is on tap now! Come enjoy a pint! 🍯🔥🌾🌰

Last Friday, our crew had a blast heading up to Virginia City with our founders, Tom and Bonda Young, to collect juniper berries for our upcoming Harvest Ale! And, of course, no trip to Virginia City is complete without a visit to Red Dog and Bucket of Blood Saloon for some post-collecting brews! 🍻

Each year, we brew our beloved Harvest Ale, a true taste of Northern Nevada, crafted with local sagebrush, juniper berries, pine nuts, and honey. This beer is a Great Basin staple and a longtime favorite of our patrons, created by our founders, Tom Young and Eric McClary!! Coming soon, so stay tuned! 🔥🌰🍯
