Tenaya Creek Brewery
Founded in November 1999 as one of Las Vegas's first craft breweries — named for its original location on Tenaya in the northwest of the city. After several years as a restaurant-brewery, the kitchen closed in 2008 to focus entirely on beer, expanding distribution across Nevada, Arizona, Utah and Canada. Their Pilsner won gold at the 2002 GABF for European-Style Pilsner, and their Hefeweizen won gold at the 2001 International Beer Festival Best in Show. Now part of the Beer Zombies Brewing family, Tenaya Creek beers are even found on Allegiant Airlines western routes.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
Tenaya Creek Pilsner
Their beers place in the Top 54% of the catalogue on average, across 4 ranked beers. Consistent rather than spiky — no single standout carrying the rest.
