You don't have to "GO Green" to celebrate all things Irish on March 17. What began as a religious holiday has morphed into an international festival celebrating Irish culture. Parades, food, and the drinks. We have an array of Irish ales, stouts and lagers to share with you. Here are some of our favorite Irish beers.
Oh, ALE YES! Ireland produces outstanding thick pours.
If the first name you think of in Irish beer is Guinness, we couldn't blame you. There is something magical about a pint of thick, creamy, frothy Irish tradition. And, around 13 MILLION pints of Guinness are expected to be consumed on St. Patrick's Day alone. We'll start with the obvious and hope you'll also try a few other Irish ales, stouts and lagers
And, while Finnegans Irish Amber is actually made right here in Minnesota, we give them a shout out for making great beer and doing great work. In case you didn't know, Finnigans donates their profits to fund community programs assisting those in poverty.
BONUS: Crack open a beer, and get cooking with this Guinness Braised Short Ribs recipe.
