Howard's

I read the other reviews and thought that this would be way better than what it actually was. I was rather disappointed. It's a gas station that serves beer. Cool, but not that amazing.

WoW man this place Rocks! This is my third time here and man.... I talked to the wonderful ladys at the Shiner brewery and asked them where was the first delivery and she said Howards. So off I went to Howards and it has been the number two spot to vist when in Shiner, Tx. Howards has Shiner on tap!!!! Ohh and Blue bell icecream !!! I LOVE this place!

Howard's looks like a run of the mill gas station from the outside, but is everything but once you step inside. Besides the collection of hundreds of VHS movies for sale, Howard's offers fresh Shiner for only $1.75 per pint to passersby and a rustic environment, perfect for a quick beer.

We arrived at Howard's after taking the brewery tour and we had a pint of the new Shiner Pale Ale, and I've never tasted Shiner so fresh -- even at the brewery tour. I recommend a trip to Howard's after you take the tour, and BBQ in Lockhart after you've downed a few brews on the Howard's back porch.
