*Oh I see, they’re purposely obfuscating. The full results are being trickled out over the next two weeks. The two awards above come via the Tab.

Cran-Lime Ickey

I briefly flashed indignation at not knowing about the top secret allston blog cabal until I got to their Deep Ellum drink selection.
There were quite a few drinks enjoyed, and the Cranberry Lime Rickey seemed to be the favorite at the table. I enjoyed a mint julep (which they even served in a silver cup) and a Black Water (rye and Moxie).
Them’s some questionable beer bar decisions there. It makes me question your whole frame of reference, the entirety of your existence.
UPDATE: Dogfish. I may have spoken rashly.

Whenever it stops storming and decides to act like summer again, Gareth says the Deep Ellum patio is finally open.

Deep Ellum

Deep Ellum is giving Sunset a run for their money as the best beer in Allston. From Gareth-
From the outside it looks like nothing but a small dive that has nothing going for it besides some windows and dark inside. But as soon as you step foot inside Deep Ellum, you know you’ve found something special. My roommate and I sat down at the bar and immediately claimed we had found heaven in a 20′ x 100′ brick building.
