Beer shop, Alcohol retail monopoly, Alcoholic beverage wholesaler in Cary, NC
Taps and Social Beer and Wine Shop, formerly known as Bottles & Cans Beer and Wine Shop, is a craft beer and wine retailer and taproom located at 9954 Chapel Hill Rd in Cary. The shop is built around a rotating self-pour and draft system, typically running around 14 beers on tap at any given time sourced from a wide mix of breweries, spanning well-known national names like Avery Brewing Co. of Boulder, Colorado and Lawson's Finest Liquids of Vermont alongside a strong lineup of North Carolina breweries such as Vicious Fishes in Cary, Fonta Flora Brewery in Nebo, Forgotten Road Ales in Graham, and Divine Barrel Brewing and Armored Cow Brewing in Charlotte. The tap list spans a wide range of styles, from imperial stouts and barleywines to hazy New England IPAs, West Coast pilsners, witbiers, sours, and fruited ciders, with tasting notes and ABV percentages tracked and updated regularly through Untappd. Beyond its beer selection, the shop also carries a wine-on-tap program and packaged beer for retail sale, alongside an alternative drink menu for non-beer drinkers. The shop hosts community events at its Cary location, giving it a taproom feel alongside its retail bottle shop function. Having rebranded from Bottles & Cans to Taps and Social, the shop has maintained continuity at the same Chapel Hill Road location while expanding its identity toward a more social, on-site drinking destination rather than a pure retail bottle shop. For Cary-area craft beer and wine drinkers looking for a rotating, frequently updated tap list featuring both regional and national breweries, Taps and Social offers a curated, frequently refreshed selection alongside its retail offerings.
