With St. Patrick's day just around the corner I wanted to ask everyone what is their favorite beer to drink on this day? I'd like to try out something other than Guiness for once and it would be nice to hear of some recommendations or traditions.

I still have about 14 500ml bottles of my Irish Red ale in reserve (not counting those in the fridge)... Should have enough left for the 17th...
Next year, I'll have to actually PLAN to have a brew ready for St. Patty's Day... Something that I can brew, and reserve until the blessed day arrives.
Maybe I'll make a few different things... hmmmmmmm Could be a busy January next year. :rockin:

inb4 Irish members come in to correct you on your spelling.
What did I spell wrong?
Some people take exception to the spelling of St Patrick's Day as "St Patty's Day". Not a big deal, I was joking around more than anything.

I made a stout from HBT's recipe database

I slightly modified it with about a pint of Irish whiskey that I had 2 vanilla beans soaking in for a few weeks. Its been naturally carbing in the keg for 6 weeks now. I will probably hook it up the weekend before St. Patrick's day.

Meatyportion, that is good to know. I'm half Irish and never knew people took exception to that.
I do like Smithwicks but I'm thinking of just grabbing some random Irish Red craft brews to try something new out. I found a few on beeradvocate that look like they are worth a try. Thanks guys.
