Harpoon's Beer Hall Eyes December, Smoky Drinks

BOSTON - Here's the city's smokiest cocktails. The Phoenix's Luke O'Neil went around and asked bartenders to "Overpower me, please," with results like a blend of "Fidencio, Thai-chili-infused Aperol, grapefruit, and actual wood smoke" from jm Curley's Kevin Mabry. [TP]

SEAPORT DISTRICT - The new, huge Harpoon Brewery Beer Hall will open in December, per this Craigslist job posting seeking "beer captains." Based on the job description, beer hall patrons can expect to go on tours and drink beer. [Craigslist]

THEATER DISTRICT - Like the Liberty Hotel before it, the Revere Hotel has been cited by police for "giving guests a free glass of sparkling wine." UniversalHUB reports that news and notes that the Liberty was cleared. But hotels thinking about doing the same might want to save themselves the hassle. [UH via AH&TIB]
