Beer museum
Beer is a national drink and the pride of Chuvashia, so it is not surprising that Cheboksary has such a museum. It operates in the same building in conjunction with the beer restaurant "Old Town".

You can visit it by buying only an entrance ticket and independently inspecting the exposition in two small halls, but this will not be very interesting, since the signatures under the exhibits will not give you any information.
