Jonathan Abbett reports somebody is planning to open Brookline Butcher, "steps from the Butcherie," and is seeking the town's permission to sell beer and wine.
Seriously - Harvard St. is far more likely to see pro-peace protesters than warmongers. Meet war indeed! What a thought! (But if you do go, pick me up a dozen mixed with some schmear, please.)
I'd love to see a proper butcher shop within walking distance of my house -- old guys, missing digits, in bloody aprons slicing off a couple two-inch thick steaks off a primal and pounding some veal paper-thin for schnitzel -- but unfortunately, the fact that they want to sell beer and wine suggests that this ain't gonna be that kind of butcher shop.
If Wulf's -- which hasn't been any good for years -- can survive in that neighborhood, I don't see why an old-fashioned butcher shop couldn't.

Because all butcher shops need a beer and wine license
