    My husband and I went to Beer on the Wall to meet up with some friends. I found this to be a delightful and laid back spot to get a drink and share some laughs. This concept is different than other bars in the area. You can buy craft beer from the tap or buy alcohol by the can or bottle from the refrigerator section and enjoy in the bar or on the patio. There was a large crowd when we came on a Sunday afternoon. There are snacks available for sale as well, although these are not as impressive as the beer and wine selections. My beer was fruity while my husband chose a very sour beer. You can get samples before choosing a your drink. There are tables and chairs setup inside, along with a vdeo game area. During the summer months, there is an outside patio that you can sit out on to enjoy the summer weather and the downtown vibes. I can't wait to come back and try more of their selections. I highly recommend Beer on the Wall!

    Beer on the Wall is located right in the middle of downtown Arlington Heights. They have a very large refrigerated beer case to display individual cans from local breweries throughout the midwest. Cans seemed to be grouped by brewery with the exception of seltzers and ciders. They also have some rotating beers in tap which are displayed on the screen above the bar/check out area. Additionally, they have some liquor and beer packs for sale but are to go only. They have a decent amount of seating inside and outside. Our group got a milkshake ipa, sour, and cider to enjoy on a sunny evening outside. The hard part with the beer case is that there is no way to sample the beers before purchasing. It's a tough call to get something new or a favorite go to. I specifically got a cider and the selection was pretty basic. I wish they had been more seltzers or even cocktails in a can that I could buy to drink there. Either way, it is a fun concept and a more inexpensive way to enjoy a quick drink. If ever in the area, at least stop by to take a look around!

    A super chill place for a drink! I've passed by Beer on the Wall millions of times before ever actually stepping in. It's an interesting concept - it's not like a typical bar with a server, but instead you order at the counter and bring your drink with you back to any table inside or outside (you can still start a tab, though, which is nice). We came here for a drink before dinner which was the perfect place to do so. I wish I remember the exact drink I got, but it was a 7% seltzer with vanilla, pineapple, and lychee flavors. It was DELICIOUS! Probably the best and most unique seltzer I've ever had. The employee who took my order was awesome and super informative when I told her it was my first time here. It was POPPIN and this place definitely gets busy when it's nice out and on weekends. I will definitely try Beer on the Wall again!

    Beer on the Wall has a large selection of beers on tap and single cans to purchase. Many are from local breweries, which is a great way to support local breweries. They have seating inside and there is patio seating. There is a walk up window for the patio. The staff were very nice and did not rush us while we were deciding. They have different size options , starting at 4 oz. My 4 oz cider was $ 5.00, a bit expensive, but still a good place to try a variety of beers.

    Ask the Community - Beer on the Wall

    Is inside dog friendly?

    We are classified as a restaurant so unfortunately pets are not permitted inside the store per health codes. They are more than welcome to be in our outdoor patio so long as they are not bothering other customers.

    I don't drink, but I stopped in on the way to play a number in the lottery that was a pattern for…read morethe day. (Spoiler alert: I didn't win) I don't gamble regularly, but will purchase the occasional ticket or buy raffle tickets from non-profits I support. (Yes, that's gambling!) Anyhoo, the store was bright and clean, the snack selection by the door looked like it had something for everyone, and the Lottery machine was in fine working conditions. My knowledge of liquor is practically nil, but it looked like there was plenty of bottle colors, shapes, and sizes. ‍ This was a random stop, but I would stop in again for that occasional ticket!

    Everything you've read about Foremost Liquors is true. I'm a single girl and always feel like…read morepeople think I'm an alkie going into a liquor store and buying some craft brews. I felt like at Foremost Liquors, I was welcomed with open arms. The guys up front saw me looking through the craft brews and launched into telling me all about some different breweries and making recommendations. I told them about a couple of beers I have been specifically hunting for & they gave me their opinions on them, plus told me about beers with similar tastes that they thought were better. Foremost Liquors carries a ton of Pipeworks 22 ozs which I loved going through. To see exactly what they are carrying at any given point, check out their list on BeerMenus. The store itself was very clean, organized well, plenty of parking right out front (so you don't have to carry the liqs all over creation!) and as I said the service was stellar. Top all that off with them carrying some hard to find, sought after craft beers plus their competitive pricing and it makes for a liquor store that is going to go into my regular rotation!
