St Patricks Day

[aggienaut]

So, maybe I'm the only one, but I HATE St Patricks Day.

Don't get me wrong, I love Ireland and everything about it. But St Patricks Day is a day that everyone and their brother attempts to put on the worst attempt at an insultingly bad fake Lucky Charms commercial accent, dye everything green, and celebrate all the most ridiculous stereotypes.

St Patrick wasn't even Irish d=

Haha yeah I've definitely heard it called "Cinco de Drinko."

In kind of unrelated news I saw an ad trying to portray Budweiser as somehow being in the spirit of St Patricks day. I thought it was pretty hilarious, considering that not only is Budweiser specifically unrelated to Ireland, but even lager in general isn't really Irish.

Eh, I rather associate ale a lot with the isles, and in Ireland specifically stout. Germany doesn't really do ale in fact -- when they do its under a different name I believe (I think --bocks are made the way ales are?)

I took an intro to brewing class a year ago but its starting to get a little fuzzy (=
