We’re used to seeing restaurant menus with suggested wine pairings to complement the flavors of each entrée, but beer choices are typically left to the drinker. But lately local restaurants have been changing that by offering beer pairings and special beer dinners. Want to get in on the action? Cambridge Common (1667 Mass Ave, Cambridge, 617.547.1228) hosts $39 four-course beer dinners at least once a month to highlight the more than 30 brews they offer. Next up is a Sam Adams dinner on August 12.
