A very Hoosier Beer Geek St. Patty's

A little while back, we posted a poll asking our readers which sort of beers they'd prefer for St. Patrick's day: Ireland's finest - Guinness, Harp, and Smithwick's - or something a little more "geeked up".

The results came in strongly towards something a little more geeked up (this is Hoosier Beer Geek, after all) and with that in mind we've put together a little something special for our first St. Patrick's celebration.



As you can see from the event poster, we'll be throwing our party Saturday, March 15th at 6 pm at our usual stomping grounds, Deano's Vino. With three American brews that fit the St. Patty's mood - Three Floyds Brian Boru Irish Red, Rogue Brutal Bitter ESB, and Barley Island's Black Majik Java Stout - there's sure to be something tasty enough on tap to get you feeling green.

So come on out and enjoy St. Patrick's with us on Saturday - and leave those watered down old traditional beers for Monday, when you know you've got to work the next day.

  4. I'm wondering if the two of you, for your upcoming nuptuals, registered at the Hop Shop, Parti Pak, or Great Fermentations?

  5. Next time we're out on a beer run or buying home brewing ingredients, I should ask about that.

  6. I hate to be "that guy" but do you know what they are going to be charging for beer there?

    The NYE eve party was a ton of fun, but when I settled up my bill I couldn't believe they were charging 10 bucks a glass. That really is gouging the customer when I could find it anywhere else in town for 5 or 6 a glass.

  7. Don't worry about being "that guy" - we've heard the concerns over the price of beer and have been assured by Nick at Deano's that prices for the beers we've chosen will be at "normal prices".

    What that means, exactly, I can't say, but I'm expecting pints at between $4 and $7 each.

    As far the New Year's Party, at least there was that free beer at midnight. Of course that's unlikely to ever happen again.
