Welcome to the Jungle Bar
is a journalist and longtime Las Vegas resident who has been covering entertainment and following trends within the city's restaurant and bar scene for the better part of two decades. The crew behind the popular dog-themed shipwreck bar Stray Pirate is trading pups for cats — big cats. On Thursday, June 12, they unveiled Prowl right next door, a new jungle-inspired cocktail lounge with shadowy rock walls and adventurous cocktails — all under the watchful gaze of a black panther that stalks silently across the screens behind the bar. Chris 'Tater' Gutierrez, general manager and cocktail creator at both Stray Pirate and Prowl, saw an opportunity when the T-shirt shop closed next door. But he didn't want to disrupt the cozy, chaotic vibe he fostered at Stray Pirate. 'So we wanted to do something else and create an entirely different bar, a bit the same, but more refined,' he says. Inspired by Elvis's Jungle Room at Graceland, Gutierrez leaned into the kitsch: a moss-covered lava rock wall with a carved Olmec face, a crystal-lined cave hallway, and two standout bathrooms — one with an overhead butterfly display and the other with twinkling fiber optic 'fireflies' dangling from the ceiling. The 1,200-square-foot room seats just under 50 and features a retro feel with booths of burnt orange and avocado green beneath glowing glass orbs. Prowl. Louiie Victa Prowl's cocktails follow the same inventive playbook Gutierrez developed next door at Stray Pirate — housemade syrups, fresh fruit, and unexpected flavors, all anchored by top-shelf spirits. Think ingredients like mashed sugar snap peas, honeydew, and housemade orgeat made from roasted pepitas, and a ginger beer infused with makrut lime leaf and hibiscus. It's a style Gutierrez has honed over the years behind the bar at the likes of Corduroy, Oak & Ivy, and Atomic Liquors. The drinks at Prowl are cheeky by design. Gutierrez describes the Jungle Spirits menu as 'playfully raunchy,' with irreverent names and cult movie references. There's Sex Panther, a blend of reposado tequila and Oaxacan rum served in a ceramic panther head and teased on the menu as containing 'bits of real panther.' For a Good Time Call includes an actual phone number that patrons can dial for entertainment. 'We're trying to make the menu lighthearted and fun to read,' Gutierrez says. But for him, it's still all about what's in the glass. Monstera Mash combines Capurro Quebranta Pisco with savory sugar snap peas, citrus, mint, elderflower, cardamom, and egg white. The Cougar is a light grapefruit-and-rose vodka drink, while the Morning Wood blends Vesta coffee with Woodford Reserve Bourbon, maple, Italian amaro, and sherry for something bold, balanced, and a little bit naughty. Prowl. Louiie Victa Prowl's opening is the latest sign of the cocktail bar revolution that's happening in the Arts District. It joins other new arrivals like Natalie Young's Echo Taste and Sound, James Tree's Petite Boheme, Corner Bar Management's Doberman, and Nocturno from Milpa's DJ Flores — all run by bartenders with deep roots in Vegas and serious culinary chops. Together, they're redefining the Las Vegas cocktail bar: serving elevated drinks in high-concept spaces built for bar-hopping nights in a walkable, fast-evolving neighborhood. 'This is the area where people's dreams are coming true,' Gutierrez says about the Arts District. 'You can go into a spot and see somebody's dream come together within four walls.'

THCA Flower of 2025: BudPop Unveils New Animal Runtz, Sex Panther & SFV OG Strain Now Available
BudPop unveils three new THCA flower strains for 2025: Animal Runtz, Sex Panther, and SFV OG, now available online. Read more for strain details. Charlotte, NC, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BudPop, a California-based hemp company specializing in federally legal cannabinoid products, has officially launched three new THCA flower strains: Animal Runtz, Sex Panther, and SFV OG. The thca strains became available for purchase through the company's online storefront in June 2025. This product expansion marks BudPop's continued investment in high-potency, Farm Bill-compliant THCA products, responding to increased consumer demand regarding hemp-based wellness products across the United States. The three strains, developed through selective cultivation and third-party lab verification, join BudPop's existing catalog of hemp-derived cannabinoids. Each thca flower is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill and is cultivated to contain high levels of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), which converts to THC when heated. Animal Runtz Animal Runtz is a hybrid thca flower known for its fruity aroma, dense buds, and vibrant purple-green coloration. Genetically derived from Animal Cookies and Runtz, the strain combines sweet berry flavors with earthy undertones. Lab reports indicate a THCA concentration around 31.2%, making it one of BudPop's more potent offerings. Consumers report balanced effects, including mental clarity and body relaxation, making it a versatile choice for both daytime and evening use. In 2025, the demand for hybrid strains with fruity profiles like these has seen marked growth, especially among users seeking a combination of cerebral and physical effects. Sex Panther Sex Panther is a bold, sativa-leaning hybrid, developed to offer pronounced euphoria and physical relaxation. Its terpene profile includes high levels of myrcene and limonene, contributing to a pungent, musky aroma with citrus undertones. With THCA levels averaging around 25.24%, Sex Panther is tailored for experienced consumers seeking high potency. According to BudPop, the thca flower was designed in response to user demand for nighttime options that support mood enhancement and stress relief. The provocative strain name has generated early social media interest, though BudPop emphasizes product quality over marketing novelty. SFV OG SFV OG (San Fernando Valley OG) is a classic West Coast strain brought into BudPop's THCA flower collection to meet demand for heritage genetics in a compliant format. Characterized by an earthy pine flavor and moderate pungency, SFV OG features THCA levels near 23.8% and a terpene profile dominated by pinene and caryophyllene. The thca strain is sativa-leaning and traditionally used for pain management and evening relaxation. As legacy strains regain popularity in 2025, BudPop has prioritized authenticity in strain development, sourcing verified genetics and using slow-cured, indoor-grown thca flowers. About BudPop BudPop was established in Los Angeles in 2021 with a focus on cannabinoid science and legal hemp product innovation. Founded by a team of industry professionals with backgrounds in cultivation, compliance, and wellness, the company has become known for its rigorous lab testing, product transparency, and customer service. BudPop's product lineup includes Delta-8, Delta-9, HHC, CBD, and THCA-based items, all derived from hemp and compliant with federal law. In four years, BudPop has grown into a nationally recognized brand, shipping to all 50 states where hemp-derived cannabinoids are permitted. The company continues to lead the market through selective strain development, third-party testing, and transparent labeling practices. Why Shop THCA Flower on BudPop?
