The famous "shoe tree" of Nevada's interior was a lone tree on the side of the highway where travelers began a tradition of flinging a pair of shoes onto its branches until the whole tree was filled with hanging shoes. That roadside attraction is now just a part of history as the tree was destroyed by vandals, but that's how Shoe Tree Brewing Company in Carson City got its name and keeps the story alive. The brewery has an array of craft beers, with choices changing regularly. There's the Vanilla Cream Ale, Bavarian Honey Wheat Ale, Extra Pale IPA and non-alcoholic root beer and cold brew coffee. Have a flight to compare and contrast flavors while looking through the taproom's window to see the beer-making take place. Shoe Tree's original location is near the historic Carson City Hot Springs. A second location is in Minden. Neither offers food, but outside food is allowed.
