Boston: Beer Time




At the top: the grave of Samuel Adams at the Old Granary Burying Ground on Tremont street. But not to worry-- beer is not dead; all this touring makes one thirsty. To be avoided at all costs (unfortunately) is the "Cheers" pub on Beacon Hill. It's tiny and full of redneck tourists, and the beer's expensive also. At the bottom is the Green Dragon pub, where revolutionary colonists went drinking either shortly before or after the Boston Tea Party-- I can't remember which, I was drinking too much.

Mark, Looks like you hit all the best spots in town. Was this your first trip to Beantown? Any stops in the North End? Kathy K
