good whiskey?
try doyle's in JP, i'm pretty sure they have the largest whiskey menu in boston. you can combine that with a sam adams brewery tour for the 'get real fucked up early on a saturday' kind of vibe, it being st pats day and all.http://boston.citysearch.com/pro…
doyle's is an institution, the kennedys have drunk there, the history is soaking out of the floorboards.
brewery tours (it's walking distance from doyle's, but they do provide a trolley):
http://www.samueladams.com/share…for culture, the ICA down by the water is worth a visit, and the MFA recently unveiled their new American wing, designed by Norman Foster, also quite worth the price of admission.
newbury st for people watching, lansdowne st or central sq in cambridge for the saturday evening vibe, faneuil hall for the touristy crap.
and, seriously, people, fuck mike's pastry. BOVA'S!!!!

"Reasons to go here instead of Mike's:
1. Much shorter lines
2. Equally if not better tasting pastries
3. Cheaper
4. No hype to live up to
5. No stupid box that immediately identifies you as a tourist. Bostonians do not go to Mike's."
