QUESTION: Why are mega-swill beers green on St. Patrick’s Day?

ANSWER: envy Stout

Friends don’t let friends drink green beer.  There’s nothing Irish about it.  Save the green for your clothes and put something Irish in your belly.  Guinness is a great beer and it’s the benchmark that we micro brewers shoot for when we formulate our Stout recipes.  But when you’re out, consider drinking one of the great local (O’Reilly’s or Donnybrook) dry stouts out there…  or in here!  They’re going to be much fresher, and they’re local so they haven’t been shipped halfway around the world.  In that sense you’ll still be drinking a green beer!

Happy St. Pat’s!

Chris
