Tucked away in an attractive brick neighborhood, just east of the second largest urban park in St. Louis, sits The Shaved Duck, one of the finest beer and barbecue joints west of the Mississippi.
Set in a small, renovated corner shop, the restaurant’s mission is emblazoned on the wall: barbecue, folk, and soul.
In addition to a mouthwatering menu, its beer and spirits selection reigns supreme in a city with stiff competition. Guests can choose between 30 different bottled beers and a bar stocked with top-shelf bourbons like Wild Turkey Rare Breed and Woodford Reserve, alongside Missouri-made liquors, such as the popular Wood Hat Spirits.
Its four tap lines alternate weekly to the delight of regulars, who can expect wide-ranging brews from the likes of Dogfish Head, Big Sky, and Deschutes, as well as local beer makers, like 4 Hands Brewing, Urban Chestnut Brewing Company, and Modern Brewery.
