Are you a Shellfish Brewer?

Julia Taylor — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 17:05:05 +0000

In a few weeks, all “Irish” eyes will be shining and Guinness will be flowing like water in honor of the patron saint of Ireland. This year, avoid the urge to be a plastic Paddy and brew up something that ol’ Patrick would have enjoyed, because driving snakes off the island does work up a [...]
