Boston - Day 3

The day started off rather slow, mostly due to the fact that I had to do some work, but we went for a short jog along the Charles River. Then we headed to Fenway Park for a tour of the Red Sox' home. While waiting for the tour we stepped into a brewpub, Boston Beer Works (across from Fenway). We tried a sampler and the beer was decent, but generally lacked body.
The Fenway tour was lots of fun. The tour guide was an old crazy Sox fan, and we got to see the park from lots of great seats. I highly recommend the tour for even the most casual fan.
After the tour we wandered the city looking for some fresh seafood to fix for dinner. We didn't find anything, so we just headed to Whole Foods to grab supplies. We wrapped up the day with a quiet night in.
Beers drank:
BBW Sweet 16 - malty mild
BBW Boston Red - good balance, very smooth
BBW Back Bay IPA - good bitl eness and hops but too little body
BBW Muddy River Porter - roasted flavor and aroma
