If “hot dogs and beer” is a combo you most associate with Fenway Park, up your game—and get to Deep Ellum, where the acclaimed craft brew list with options like Lawson’s Finest Liquids’ Sip of Sunshine and a bunch of Belgian sours complements the best frank around. The Allston hipster haunt offers a Pearl dog topped with housemade kimchi, hot mustard and pickles. It’s snappy and spicy, an alpha among also-rans and the perfect way to soak up all those super suds.
