BOSTON, MA — Is there anything that screams summer more than sitting outside in the warm sun with a great beer and a hot dog?

If beer isn't your thing, the pop-up will also feature a menu of ciders, wines, spirits and non-alcoholic beverages. The food options also include chips and dip as well as a soft pretzel.

Perhaps most noteworthy given the Boston location are the prices. Though the beer offerings are over $10, all other items on the menu — with the exception of a Cipriani bellini — are under $10, including cocktails, wine and food.
