The excitement of St. Patrick's Day can sometimes cloud our judgment. This year, it's crucial to think ahead about how to get home safely after the festivities.
Massachusetts is just about to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! And it's pretty tough to find a drink that is just as synonymous with the celebrated day than Guinness. Bars and Irish pubs everywhere will be selling plenty of the popular alcoholic beverage over the next days leading up to Monday, March 17th. As it turns out, on average, Massachusetts sells one of the most expensive pints of Guinness in the U.S.
Look no further than "The Bell In Hand Tavern" located on 45 Union St. in Boston. This historic bar served up its first beer in 1795. That's just less 20 years after The Declaration of Independence! Printers, politicians, sailors, and even students all gathered at this place for a nice bottle of Ale. That's right, Ale was the biggest drink sold at this Tavern since the first owner at the time "Jimmy Wilson" wasn't into serving up any hard whiskey that other establishments were serving in those days.
