It’s St. Patrick’s Day. Time for celebrate, have fun (though remember what it’s really all about, right), and drink some Irish goodness. Of course, Guiness is awesome. So is Harp, Killian’s, and Murphy’s. These are all good, that’s why they are so popular.
But maybe this St. Patrick’s Day, try and track down some of these Irish craft beer brewers and cider makers. Many probably won’t be available to you…so check them out on your next trip to the Emerald Isle…

Rich in blessings,
Slow to make enemies,
Quick to make friends,
But rich or poor, quick or slow,
May you know nothing but
happiness from this day forward.

I am always open to trying a new (to me) beer or brewing company. While St. Patrick’s Day typically means darker ales, I still prefer the lighter, wheat based brews.
