Amid the neon-bright gambling areas at the Peppermill Casino, this lounge is a blast for its over-the-top decor and equally exotic cocktails. The signature drink, the 64-ounce Scorpion, leads with Myers's dark rum and vodka, with cherry brandy and grenadine disguising the concoction's potency.
Self-serve taps let you control the flow of this peppy alehouse's regional to international brews. The craft beer lineups and menus of apps, salads, and wood-fired pizzas and sandwiches are similar at the two locations, in Stateline and 5 miles southwest in South Lake Tahoe, so where to go depends on your mood: in the evening, the former is more barlike and stays open later than the family-friendly latter (see website for address), which has two casual outdoor areas. Both present live music some days.
