Taking medications that will trump any beer buzz you wimpy beer drinkers will get. Crazy

I haven't really celebrated St. Pat's in a long time. Nothing out here compares to the celebrations back in Chicago. Now that's a party!

Wanted to go hiking, but I'll be too busy knocking back brews at the Tempe concert! Beer

thats right, Gabrielle. In fact I have tried beers from all over the world inluding Russia and Equador etc... and off the top of my head cannot think of an irish beer that is worth a crap.

by this I mean to forgive me for not including Guiness and Murpheys, but they are not beer at all, merely "nectar of the Gods" and I feel it would be an insult to add these to the list of garbage out there such as bud light and coors, even if they are tinted green for some reason.

I just celebrated it by seeing one of my favorite punk bands One:21.

The German beer is wonderful---no amazing----no, no, there is no word in the English language sufficient enough to decribe its' perfection, so I am forced to make one up.....and I will do so right now............Scrumtrelescent. The beer in Germany is absolutely Scrumtrulescent.
Of course, it must be consumed in a German Brauhaus, which is, of course, where I consumed my St Paddy's day libations. Hey, you guys have all the good hiking. This is my only concession. SunHiker where are you from in Germany???

St. Paddy's day is a bit of a blur right now. Too many pints of the black stuff.
