Breweries that Sell More than just Beer

There’s a vintage record store in PA that has a few taps and actually brews it on beer, albeit offsite.

 

Been to that location….neat little spot and a lot of the cards they sell are vintage.

 

Shoes & Brews in Longmont, CO sells shoes, and I've been to a few coffee shop breweries, like Living Waters and Lucy and Howe

 

Probably won't find another place anywhere with that combo.

 

There are many breweries that are in former churches. Good opportunities to pray and drink.

 

Would this be the place that a BA posted a bunch of years ago that they were going to open a beer-coffee-record shop? I think it was near a college, Widener?

Glad to hear that HR spot also has vintage cards. Might need to drop by and take a look.

Enjoy

 

Hansa Brewery in Cleveland (https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/47838/), has an amazing store connected to their brewery called Hansa Import Haus (https://www.hansaimport.com/) with lots of beer, wine, and German goodies.

 

Right Proper Shaw also has a cheese shop.

 

To provide some further context here. The New Hope location is a ‘joint venture’ between Keith Shore and Jake Atkinson:

“Doubles in New Hope, PA, a brewery taproom and trading card shop, is a collaboration between Human Robot Brewery (Jake Atkinson) and local artist Keith Shore, who handles design/art, with Human Robot providing the craft beer. It's located in the former Great Barn taproom space.”

And as regards the Human Robot beer it is a satellite location, serving Human Robot beer but no brewing occurs there.

Cheers!

P.S. Some photos of Human Robot beer from my visit last summer:

 

cool store! I’d def have a beer and rip some packs

 

Some additional detail - Tree House roasts & even sources their own coffee. Their own coffee is used in their coffee imperial stouts. They also make their own cold brew. I haven't tried it, but a few BAs rave about it in a few threads. They also have a distillery & use the coffee in a few of their liqueurs.

Not to mention craft cocktails & non-alcohol flavored seltzers...

 

Stone Cow Brewery in Barre, MA has been operating a dairy farm for many years before starting up the brewery in 2016. They make their own ice cream and sell it from a small stand on site. They also run a kitchen serving food year round and do BBQ in the summer. According to a recent news article, they are planning to start a creamery, making their own cheese and butter.

 

That name sounds like the perfect afternoon to me. Brew a batch of beer....then screw!

 

Church Brew Works in Pittsburgh? comes to mind. The brewery/restaurant is gorgeous, even though I'm the furthest thing from religious. Beer was really good too.

 

That's one of them and agree it's gorgeous. Closer to home is the Ministry of Brewing in an old Catholic church. Told my fiance that's where I wanted to get married. Guess that's why she's an ex-fiance

 

One of the guys we used to have tastings with used to brew there. Cool place and solid beers, to be sure.

 

I was in a Harley Davidson dealership in Belgium that had a full bar.

 

Thanks for the reference. I quick peek at the brewery tap list shows that they even brew a Lichtenhainer. I will definitely be stopping in.

 

Whew! You dodged a bullet there!?!

Cheers!

 

I worked there as a cook back when I was going to Pennsylvania Culinary Institute. I still think it is the prettiest brewpub dining room I've ever seen.

Really makes all these concrete and exposed ductwork tasting rooms with barrels aging beer out in the open for any kid to wipe boogers on look like shit. Not saying that every place needs to be a cathedral, but put in some effort.

Beer was never the greatest, and I can't speak to the food now, but 20 years ago, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better brewpub meal.
