OT: Metzler's Beer Selection

LongJim · July 24, 2006

Well, this is OT, but just got to mention that I really love the selection of beer at Metzler's.

Got the chance to spend the evening in Denton Sunday, and stopped by to pick up a BBQ sandwich. I had forgotten how wide a selection of world beers they have.

Place gets a thumbs-up from me.

Wow, I forgot about Metzler's. Great place.

You have to try their german sausage and german potato salad....the best! 5 stars.

MeanGreenBuzz · July 24, 2006

Wow, I've been in Denton for 4 years and never heard of the place. Would any of you more enlightened folk like to drop some directions on here so I can go check it out?

Teasley and Normandee.....just about 1 block south of I-35.....turn right on normandee and get ready for some great sausage and even better imported beer from all around the world.....the best selection in denton county.

You're absolutely right, ee. One of the best beer selections in a 100 mile radius!

Not to mention a damn fine Reuben sandwich and the best onion rings in town.

My friends and I always went to the Metzlers on University, but I think that is gone now. Now, on the way into town for tailgating, I stop there to pick up the expensive imports for my wife's refined taste buds.

I think Denton has a World Market now as well. They have a pretty good selection of beers, though they aren't cold yet. A cooler, rock salt, ice and water for 20 minutes and it cures that..

Did not notice many Mexican imports, but wasn't looking for them Sat.

I did see Negra Modelo, but I was homing in on the British stuff!

If I'm just cooling off, it's Miller for me, but this stuff is a treat.

I guess you have never been to The Flying Saucer in downtown Fort Worth. They have 25+ different beers on tap. (a favorite hangout for Tarrant County North Texas Exes too)

Heck you can get Pacifico at the beer barn. Metzler's goes a tad deeper.

Or the Gingerman in Dallas. I've been and I think they boasted that they had 60+ beers on tap. I didn't count but the wall was full of taps.

I'm familiar with it, but you're right, I've never been in there. I think I might not want to come out.

Gingerman in Dallas is the same. I did notice that Billy's Brewery in Denton closed a while back. They had some good stuff on tap down there for a while.

VideoEagle · July 25, 2006

For you beer lovers in Fort Worth, the old Rick’s on the Bricks is becoming a Gingerman with 40+ different beers on tap. sometime this Fall/Winter.

And don’t forget the Flying Saucer in Addison with 80+ different beers on tap.

Besides editing videotape, for about 2 years I did a radio show about craft and imported beer!

Where is it located? My wife and I love to shop at the World Market. Their beer selection is great. However, they still don't have my favorite "Roswell Alien Amber Ale".

From the downtown square (according to maps.google.com)

1. Head east from W Hickory St

2. Continue on E Hickory St

3. Turn left at N Ruddell St

4. Turn right at E McKinney St

5. Turn right at S TX-288-LOOP

6. Arrive at Cost Plus World Market (1400 S Loop 288, Denton, TX 76205)

Translation ... directly across from Walmart.
