I frequented Sunset back in the 90s. Less people, great staff, more locals and best selection and quantity of drafts than any other bar in Boston. Then word got out and the Sunset turned more into an amusement park making every effort to bring in the tourists and transient residents of Allston/Brighton.\r

Still a good place to grab a great microbrew but you have to go offpeak otherwise be ready to drink with the college kids sipping on their yards as a novelty or the many tourists.
Pros: Lots of tap beer, prob one of the best in town
Cons: Become a tourist trap
