Status: Open 24 hours

Now you have a new 24-hour brew pub that doubles as a family restaurant on the westside. Old School Brewing Co. offers up beers from brewmaster Jim Wilson as well as breakfast, lunch and dinner at an 80-seat full-service pub with gaming and a 200-seat family restaurant.

Wilson, a former race car mechanic who was the brewmaster at Barley’s Casino & Brewing Co. from 2004 through 2010, crafted session beers including Homeroom Hefeweizen, Pale Ale 101, Varsity Vanilla Porter, ABCD ESB (Extra Special Bitter) and March Irish Red Ale. The pub plans to offer a rotation of eight of Wilson’s more than 200 recipes as well as guest selections from other local breweries. Two of the Old School beers are made with locally grown hops, and all the guest beers are from Nevada.

Diners can order fried cheese curds with honey mustard dipping sauce, potato chip nachos and beer-battered bratwurst with tots from executive chef Lea DeForte. Pizzas include The Quintuple (sausage, pepperoni, ham, bacon and shredded chicken), The One Of A Kind (bacon, red bell pepper, red onion and garlic cream sauce) and Howard the Pizza (sausage balls, baby potatoes, white sauce, mozzarella and a drizzle of Srirarcha) also make the menu. Kid’s and vegetarian options are also available.
