Green Beer for A Greener Saint Patrick’s Day
March 8, 2009 by Jennifer
Saint Patrick’s Day is quickly coming up – March 17th, so if you haven’t made plans there’s still time to green up your activities…
For some easy general ideas read:
- Green Your St. Patrick’s Day Party
- St. Patrick’s Day Blog Carnival
- Learn how to turn your organic brew green (yes the color green). Oooo festive.
- If you’re really advantageous, you can always recycle your beer cans into butterflies
If you’re specifically looking for information on greener brew to drink on the big day you can do one of the following:
Check your local yellow pages (or online) for a green pub near you. You’d be surprised how many organic and natural breweries are popping up. Three places I’ve lived have had one or two green pubs.
Look at the market for local organic beer. Even if your town is sans a totally organic brew pub, there’s a good chance that one or two local breweries still make and sell organic beer and wine.
There are some national brands as well. Some ideas…
- Green Beer for St. Patrick’s Day – ideas from the Sierra Club.
- All sorts of green alcohol companies from Co-op America.
- Organic Beverages for Your Green Wedding – ok yeah, for a wedding, but LOTS O’ ideas.
- Serve organic beer and organic mixers only.
What are you planning for St. Paddy’s Day?
