Aside from perhaps Oregon’s Portland International (PDX), you’d be hard-put to find an airport in this country blessed with better beer than Boston Logan (BOS). Latest evidence: the Cisco Brew Pub just turned on the tap in Terminal B. That’s the American Airlines’ enclave at Logan.

The stuff they serve is imported. But this is the important part: much of it is imported from nearby Nantucket. That’s where Cisco was founded a few years back. Choose from Chardonnay to blonde ale, wheat beer to local spirits. There’s nothing cookie-cutter about the libations Cisco serves up.

This 70-seat plus place is more than a pub. There’s seafood, pasta, salads and such to round out things before boarding your flight.

The market apparently abhors a vacuum. In recent years, as airlines have curtailed in-flight eating options, entrepreneurs at airports across the country have rushed in with fresh, innovative ideas. Boston Logan’s Cisco Brew Pub is one of a legion of examples.

The pub is open seven days a week, from 5a.m. to 9p.m.
