|June 18, 2026
Boston’s pubs are facing an unexpected challenge as thousands of Scottish football fans base themselves in the city for the World Cup, reportedly causing a significant shortage of beer.
Over 20,000 members of the Tartan Army have travelled to Massachusetts for Scotland’s opening two group stage matches. Beyond the pitch, the same supporters have embraced American culture, including flocking en masse to Fenway Park to watch a Boston Red Sox baseball game. The influx of thirsty fans has led to an unprecedented surge in demand, with numerous establishments across the city reporting dwindling beer supplies.
