Bottle Shops

Visitors to the Port City of Wilmington often discover a delightful surprise: a market brimming with beers and breweries they won’t encounter back home. Whether it’s limited-edition releases or well-crafted IPAs, the best place to acquire these treasures is at one of our area’s bottle shops. Picture yourself on the back deck of your beach house, sipping a unique brew, or enjoying it at your hotel before heading out for the evening. Better yet, take some home to share with friends.

Our local bottle shops go beyond mere retail—they’re community hubs. Each shop features beers on tap and by the bottle, inviting patrons to linger and savor their selections. These establishments have become Wilmington locals’ favorite watering holes, where friendly staff eagerly recommend the perfect craft beer to suit your palate. On weekends, some even offer live music or host brewery events. So, venture forth, explore our bottle shops, and discover the flavors that define Wilmington’s vibrant beer culture.
