Pipe and Pint is a nice little hidden gem in Greensboro, primarily a cigar shop it offers a decent selection of beer in the back corner. The beer selection available focuses primarily on Belgian and Belgian style and imports. You can find some beers here that you cannot find at other shops in the area and has the best selection of Cantillon beers in the area (however, they do sometime tend to fly off the shelf). The owner is super helpful and will try to get what ever you want, one time I asked a question about getting some more Cantillon product and on the spot he called his distributor. Smoking has now been stop within the shop in compliance with local law. However, there is one drawback, the beer selection is a little disorganized and cluttered and may take a little time to sift. But regardless, this is a great off the beaten path place to stop for beer and I am sure you'll find something you cannot find in the other local stores.

Pipe and Pint has one of the best selections of any beer store in the Triad. Lots of English and Belgians in particular. In a small space, you will find a lot of the beers that only make it to our state in small quantities. There are shelves along two walls and cases stacked up on the floor.

If you want something specific, just tell Larry and he'll order it. And call you when it comes in. He also has the best selection of glassware in town.

The only drawback to this store is that it is a cigar and pipe shop that allows customers to lounge around on a couple of couches and smoke all day long. You can't be in this store for more than 30 seconds without smelling like cigar smoke for the rest of the day. Hence the atmosphere score.
