GR Breweries St Patrick’s Day Guide 2014

Leave a comment

St. Patrick’s Day 2014 is coming quick and many Grand Rapids breweries are planning specials,events and live music for the entire weekend so here is a guide to help you maximize your beer drinking on this sacred holiday! While St. Patty’s day is all about green most of the local craft breweries might not have green beer on tap, but what they will have are Irish themed brews that true Irish people would be proud to drink with full flavors and quality ingredients. If you want live Irish music many breweries will be bringing in bands and for a full day of fun they will have Irish themed menu items so you don’t have to survive on a liquid diet alone.

First you should know about Irish on Ionia, the biggest St. Patrick’s Day Street Party in Michigan! It runs from 7am to 11pm on March 15th this year and promises to be bigger and better then ever. They’ve increased the size to two city blocks and two performance stages this year. Sponsored by McFadden’s, with advance tickets only $10 this is a St Patty party you want to be a part of. There will be heated tents, live Irish dancing, tons of music and plenty more so visit Irish On Ionia.com for complete details.
