Latest print article: St. Patrick’s Day! Local Irish-themed beer roundup

Several Irish-themed Central Oregon beers

My latest article for The Bulletin came out today—St. Patrick’s Day!—so of course I couldn’t pass up the chance to write about locally brewed Irish-themed beers for the day.

When it comes to Irish drink on this day, beer is king, and among the beer drinkers I’d expect to see pints of Guinness Stout in hand. Guinness is the most-consumed beer on St. Paddy’s Day, and for many, it’s synonymous with Irish beer.

It’s not the only Irish-themed beer around, however. Many craft brewers release special beers in March to capture the festive spirit. This year, leading up to the holiday, I rounded up several local craft brews currently available that fit The Emerald Isle theme, any and all of which will have you raising a glass and saying “Sláinte!”

Naturally since I turned in the article on Sunday, several more local Irish-style beers were released this week. That’s how it goes with deadlines, sometimes! Anyway, you can still check out the beers I highlighted in this article and others, and enjoy the Irish spirit through the rest of this month.
