You Can Drink Beer While You Shop At This Quirky Antique Store In Texas
Typically, stores have a strict “no food or drinks” policy to ensure the merchandise doesn’t get damaged. Shiner, the headquarters of Shiner Bock, does things a little differently. Here at Antiques, Art & Beer, you’re not only encouraged to drink while perusing the inventory, but the staff is more than happy to pour you a cold one.
As you're walking the streets of historic downtown Shiner, don't pass up this gem. While antiques and beer sound like an odd pair, rest assured they complement one another perfectly.
Upon entrance, your senses will be quickly overwhelmed by the floor-to-ceiling inventory. Knick-knacks, collectibles, retro appliances, and other quirky finds compile several decades worth of memorabilia into one tiny room.
You'll be overwhelmed in the best way possible. It's easy to spend hours reminiscing on cherished childhood memories while searching for a diamond in the rough.
A full bar offers local ale from right down the street in authentic Shiner glasses. Have the staff pour you some and mingle with other antique lovers, surrounded by all sorts of treasures.
Spend some time perusing the vast selection while you sip. Local jams, jellies, and other canned goods dominate several shelves, appealing to the raging appetites that emerge when we get a little tipsy.
Grab a few cold ones before hitting the road! A giant cooler is stocked with every flavor imaginable, guaranteeing everyone leaves with their favorite brew in hand.
