Ariana Rye is not what you expect when you think of the “face” of a brewery company. Ariana Rye was born much too early. She spent 117 days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). She was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder. Ariana Rye is the daughter of the owners of Nevada Brew Works. That is how she became the first “face” of the brewery and the reason for the brewery’s support for disabled children.

Disabled children are why Nevada Brew Works does what they do. The brewery names its craft beers after disabled children. The owners understand the difficulty in getting medical equipment and support for these children. They created The Ariana Rye Foundation, a non-profit charity. For every “Ariana RyePA” beer sold in the Nevada Brew Works, a percentage of the proceeds go to The Ariana Rye Foundation to buy medical equipment for children with disabilities.
Every month, the brewery sponsors a different child. These “named” beers (see images above) dedicate proceeds to that family. These sponsorships are instrumental in helping families cope with the expense of equipment for children with disabilities. The costs and need for special equipment can be catastrophic. The help offered by The Ariana Rye Foundation through the Nevada Brew Works can be life-changing for these children and their families.
To learn more about some of the special equipment Ariana uses, her parents made a video with descriptions and information about each item.
Nevada Brew Works Is Making A Difference
As you can see from the pricing in the descriptions, equipment for children with disabilities can be expensive. That is why the donations provided through The Ariana Rye Foundation are so important to these families. So, if you ever find yourself in the Arts District in Las Vegas, stop by the Nevada Brew Works and have a glass of beer. You can still donate on their website if you don’t drink or aren’t near Las Vegas.
The brewery has a kid-friendly taproom and patio. It’s open seven days a week and offers a full menu with brick-oven pizzas, smash burgers, and more. We can’t think of a better place to spend your tourist dollars than the most charitable brewery in Southern Nevada. The Nevada Brew Works is not the only business inspired by children with disabilities. ScentsAbility Candles hires disabled folks to create their products and provides a safe workspace for them.
