The Bottle Shop

Clay Hartmann opened up the World Beer Company a few years ago. The business, which allows patrons to send gift baskets with exotic imported and craft beers to friends, was successful. But Hartmann had a problem finding a home for all the leftover beer. His new venture, The Bottle Shop, located next to The Singlewide on Greenville Avenue, solves his problem. The place operates as a beer store and a bar, so you can have a beer and, if you like it, take home a six-pack. The Bottle Shop is designed for the curious beer drinker, though. With more than 400 beers to sample, including the Spanish Estrella Damm-a rare find in any Dallas bar-it's hard not to try something new.
