Cool little burning history--the building that houses The Pearl (The Blue Pearl) was built in the…read morelate 1800s; 1895-1896ish and has always had a bar in it. Interior stone walls transcend you back to that period of dirt streets, horses hitched out front, & America coming into its own. In the heart of historic downtown Lockhart, this live music venue also offers scrumptious food options from its restaurant as well as ice cold brews and elevated cocktails. Can't beat a Sunday Funday brunch with live music, drinks, and food.

Having traveled from our home to this town, we had checked into our inn and now wanted some…read morerefreshments and mirth. We happened upon a bar that had a teller of comicdic stories and his helper and thought this to be perfect. The name of said bar was The Pearl and the storyteller a Mr. Daryl Felsberg. We ordered our alcohol. My wife and traveling companion got me a white chocolate Martini, it came with a pearl and a cherry. and I got her a cocktail called Emily Morgan. Both were very good. The service was friendly but only two people running the whole thing and one was the owner or manager who was mostly the greeter. She was friendly but the main bartender was doing most of the work and while impressive I felt sort of bad for him. The set up is you can sit at the bar, then there is a walkway all in a line from the door. When you enter bar is on your right. To the left are tables of various sizes. Right in front of the stage is a table with two comfy chairs. Right past the bar is a small seating nook with comfy chairs. Not a bad overall setup. Bathrooms are through another set of doors. No food but there is a popular pizza place nearby and you can bring that in to eat. The comics were both funny. We bought a CD and T-Shirt from the main guy. The one thing that did go wrong was the stage lighting. It just randomly would switch colors, brightness, sometimes turn off completely. This was their first comedy show there but they have live music so not sure what happened. You got your own water from a glass dispenser which was not the only place that did this. It was a pretty popular option. We also had a shot of peanut butter whiskey. The overall price wasn't bad. It was a nice place, they had live music coming after the comic but we had other plans. This was our only visit to The Pearl on this trip but it was a pleasant rest stop for weary traveller's in need of quenching our thirst and merriment.

Lindsey and her staff were very welcoming. Grapes are sourced from Sonoma Ca and her husband is the wine maker. Good wine! Great service and while in Bastrop, you should visit! If I ever find myself in the Austin area, I would definitely come back to Kana and the eateries surrounding!

Open Mic nights are twice a month. Live music is scheduled every Friday and Saturday. They host Women Wine Wednesdays on the first Wednesday of the month featuring local women owned businesses where you can sip while you shop. The service is extremely hospitable and personal. Staff members Jen and Eric are amazing at exploring individual tastes and suggesting the perfect wine out of the extensive menu. The creation of Cork2Glass is beautiful, the space was developed to share the sense of wonder that comes with opening a wine bottle. You get to learn the story each glass is telling because every vineyard has a rich history. This is a cozy gathering spot for wine lovers without the intimidation or pretension. Everyone can enjoy a glass! Bottles are reasonably priced and there is a huge, high quality variety. However, if you feel like splurging, they have a cellar of high end wines that are a perfect gift or way to commemorate a special occasion. If the options are too overwhelming there are multiple wine flights to choose from. They also offer beer or non-alcoholic beverages if wine isn't your passion but you still want to visit. I'll be bringing all my friends here and taking advantage of the amazing community built here at all the wonderful events!

This is absolutely a must stop if you are in the Shiner area!!! I can't think of anyplace else I've ever been where I could have a beer and shop at the same time ... how cool is that? Beverly and her staff are so friendly and welcoming ... they make you feel right at home. I probably spent too much time here as it was so easy to relax with a beer then wander awhile and see what great stuff they have for sale but I do believe it was time well spent! Absolutely great time and I will be back!! read more

This business is a great credit to the Shiner community, brings a sense of refinement and eclectic ambiance to town. The proprietor Beverly is congenial with everyone that stops in and has become a fixture in the local community.

Unfortunately the distillery is only open Friday and Saturday nights from 5:00-10:00pm. We went on a Friday night right when they opened and a good handful of people had the same idea. Our waitress came around and took our food and drink order as well as everyone else's, so it did take around 20-30 minutes to get our drinks and a little longer to get our appetizers. Once the rush of customers was finished, we received drinks more promptly. We got the salsa and chips + guac to enjoy with our drinks and everything was incredibly tasty!
