If you have tickets to the World Series, you've got plenty of options for dining and drinking – in addition to Yankee Stadium’s concession stands, there’s a Hard Rock Cafe inside, and for nearby pre- or post-game boozing, there’s always F&J Pine, Stan’s and, of course, Yankee Tavern. But if you’re the kind of person who’d rather watch at a bar closer to home, well, you’re probably also the kind of person who likes to hunt out a beer deal. Here are some local spots with special promotions in their line-up.
