Common Ground - Allston


Beer and pizza make great companions. I imagine them traveling together and making great allies wherever they roam. Pizza, mounted upon a fiery steed, with beer plodding closely behind on a mule, they approach a town trodden with depression--the peasants see them approach. They hoot and cry out as the duo enters town and after much merriment the two heroes depart in search of new friends.

Seriously though, they have pitchers of beer and cheese pizzas for $14 at Common Ground in Allston (also known as "Kid Nation" in lieu of the amount of free-willed college students that abide there). So before 10 p.m. on Tuesdays the deal is a pitcher of the sweet and smooth Brooklyn Brown Ale and a moderately sized cheese pizza for $14. I think they don't always serve Brooklyn Brown with this deal, but it certainly makes it more than worth it when they do--a pitcher of Brooklyn Brown by itself costs $17.

This is a test now. Do you get the pitcher and the pizza for $14 or do you get just the pitcher for $17. Please pass this test. Please don't make a fool of yourself. If you're not hungry, call me and I will eat your pizza. Hell, call someone.

Don't you have friends?
