Boston, MA – The much-loved Eastern Standard, a culinary refuge in the heart of the Fenway, has risen from its 2021 closure and returned to the scene with a delightful surprise for beer enthusiasts. Amidst the glamour and buzz of their new location, the restaurant has teamed up with Rhode Island’s Narragansett Beer to craft a unique offering that’s set to captivate the taste buds of patrons.
ES Pilsner, a specialty “Bohemian” lager, is the brainchild of this exciting collaboration. Eastern Standard, renowned for its commitment to culinary excellence, has taken a step further by extending its craftsmanship to the world of craft beer. This specialty lager, available exclusively at the restaurant, is poised to redefine the beer experience for patrons.
Narragansett’s head brewer, Lee Lord, sheds light on the characteristics of this remarkable brew. “Known for their straw golden color and creamy thick head, Bohemian pilsners are delicate and easy-drinking beers while remaining incredibly complex,” says Lord. The ES Pilsner promises a sensory journey with its impeccable balance and subtle intricacies.
For those familiar with Eastern Standard, it’s more than just a place to dine. It’s an escape from the frenetic energy of the ballpark, a tranquil oasis in the midst of the bustling city. Patrons who frequented the restaurant in its previous location will recall the impeccable service, exquisite cuisine, and, occasionally, the bartender’s hidden treasure – a can of Heady Topper pulled from the low-rise fridge.
The reopening of Eastern Standard on October 12 in its new Fenway location has sparked much excitement. While the new space and menu are bound to create a buzz, it’s the partnership with Narragansett Beer and the launch of ES Pilsner that have the beer community talking. This venture into the craft beer world is a testament to the restaurant’s commitment to delivering an all-encompassing, memorable dining experience.
So, whether you’re a longtime Eastern Standard enthusiast or new to its charms, don’t miss the opportunity to savor the ES Pilsner. Eastern Standard’s return is not just a reopening but a resurgence, marked by innovation and the spirit of collaboration. It’s a welcome addition to Boston’s vibrant beer scene and promises to be a delightful addition to your evening at this renowned establishment.
