That beer list is really impressive, as is the 40ft flat screen above the bar!

 

It's part of a huge corporation owned by the Jacobs family, owner of the Bruins and the Garden. They also own hundreds of restaurants, under different names, across the world. They have, uhh, some buying power.

 

wow, looks like im going saturday night. That draft list is the most impressive in the boston area

The fours is the only place I go for pregame festivities but good grief this is LEGIT

 

Well damn I think that is on my to do list. That is one hell of a draft list for sure.

 

Amazing taplist and big screen. I’m always leery when the # of drafts is that large. Seems hard to keep 60 lines fresh but who knows, that’s a busy area. I’ll certainly look to visit.

 

Yup. And I'm always leery when restaurants/bars don't include prices on their beer menus. Their food menu is online with prices, why not prices for the beers?

 

Because its Boston and probably gonna be $15 for an 8 oz pour lol

 

From someone who was there last night, so you can an idea of prices....

 

Pour sizes not listed for all of them. If not listed, I wonder if the default is 12 or 16 oz

 

The sad part is my exaggeration wasnt that far off.

 

I think its great that places like tilted barn get some exposure, but those prices are shall we say pretty steep. 3 beers and a burger and with tip im at like $60 just to hang out for like 60-90 mins. When did boston become manhattan?

 

Those prices are pretty standard in and around Boston for craft beer (Cambridge, Somerville..etc.).

Not saying that's cheap, but hey, drinking craft beer in Boston isn't cheap.

 

damn i fucked up before bon iver last night

 

Yeah, a burger and 3 or so beers at a good Boston bar usually runs me around $60-$80 all included. Boston beer has been expensive for a while, but at least it’s good.

I’ll stop by after work today - that’s a solid draft list.

 

Well...considering how close it is to where I live, I will have to put it on my "to do" list.

 

This is why I don't/can't drink in Boston much. I take my entire family to a top notch tap list/restaurant in Vermont and it's $80 with tip for 2 entrees, kids meal, appetizer and 3 awesome beers. I guess in theory if you work in Boston you probably make a lot more.

Also why I don't frequent Trillium much even though it's one of my top favorite brewers.

 

I'm not usually one to be all 'oh-noes too many IPAs/Stouts/Sours' but it's kind of lame and surprising that Von Trapp Pilsner and Night Lite are the sum total of light lagers on a 40 beer list (I know there are a couple of macros and Stella too).

I mean, those kinds of beers are not only fairly "in" right now, but they're located just outside a sporting venue.

And I have to think its the beginning of the end for the Beer Works with this and Night Shift having moved in to the area.

 

Fear not for beer works. I only care about Sullivans and the Fours. Those should forever be there, thats like church. The rest of that area who cares its completely dead when not game time

 

1 Pilsner....
