Oh thank goodness!
I never could stand corned beef. Bacon though is another matter!
I'll be having Irish soda bread. It's cooling as we speak.
It don't mean a thing, if you aint got that swing!!

I'm with you on it. I might have a very tiny bite of it, but that is all I can handle. I do, however, make what I am told is a damn good corned beef, lol...I start getting the "you are making the stuff for st pat's day, right?" questions at work starting somewhere around the middle of January. This is mostly from my Irish driver, my Egyptian boss, and now, and English driver.
I'd rather have the stew I make with guiness in it. It's yummy.

You know, they never put green coloring in good beer, it's always in the cheapest crap they can get. Probably the only way they can sell it.

My wife gets a daily e-mail from a local restaurant and food based website. Yesterday's included the following:
[No Green Beer?!
This year while the hoi polloi swill their green-dyed beers, you can be a cut above by responsibly enjoying a decidedly different beverage to toast St. Patrick this weekend. Along with the Germans and Italians, St. Louis has a long and rich Irish heritage. If your favorite pub serves Anheuser-Busch's Bare Knuckle Stout on draft, then celebrate that heritage with an Irish American, a new twist on the classic black-and-tan.
Half Budweiser and half Bare Knuckle Stout, the combination not only tantalizes your taste buds with the rich, toasty flavor the dark stout and the crisp, palate-cleansing taste of the light pilsner, it creates an arresting visual as well: the stout naturally layers on top of the Bud and looks stunning in a traditional pub-style glass.
Sounds pretty bad to me.

I'll pass on that one. Budweisers attempts at craft beers have been bad for a long time..( ex. bud employee here ..we got to taste some stuff that never hit the shelves.)

That remindes me of my trip to Germany during World Cup. 17 days of drinking fantastic beer...except in the stadiums where they served Budwieser...that's right...Budwieser. I thought I was going to puke.

As the Wicked Tinker say, "everyone is at least 1/365th Irish". It is amazing how many people think that also requires that they don all that artificial plastic leprecaun crap. As for the drinking, I fondly recall sitting in a beer tent during an October Fest when a friend named Sullivan remarked how strang it is that the local Bavarian community has a festival to do for a week what we do all year long.
