I myself love Guinness a Stout that's a very dark, almost black full-bodied beer!Nothing like it! But for this you'll need a lighter beer like an IRISH AMBER, Irish Red Ale, or a Golden Irish Lager Style BeerPint Glasses (16 oz). I make this for fun on St. Patty's Day. For the kids use a clear juice with coloring. This is a great way to get people interested in culture! Bring them in and the teach them.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces golden irish lager beer
  • 3-6 drops green food coloring

Directions

  1. 1
    In a chilled pint size glass pour beer add food coloring and mix inches Enjoy!
  2. 2
    "Slàinte!" (pronounced "slawn-cha"),.

    As the Irish would say. The traditional toast is the Irish equivalent of cheers and means "good health" in Gaelic.

Fun! The green doesn't alter the taste at all. For the kiddos, I use ginger ale! Looks pretty much the same.

    Great idea for making Irish lager even more "Irish"! I used my very favorite, Harp lager.And, though it may not be very Irish of me, I add a bit of Rose's Lime Juice to mine. Thanks Rita! Made for Zaar World Tour.

    Well, being Irish and celebrating St. Paddy's with my usual gusto, I can tell you that I have had more than my fair share of Green Beer. I worked in a Pub and it was a fun annual tradition to serve these on St. Paddy's Day. The beer has the same taste and flavour of course, just looks a little funny, but the point is, it is FUN! Give it a try! Thanks for posting Rita!
