Sláinte or something, you dark beer loving spring drinkers. The boys are ready to rate Emerald Isle beers so you know what you must drink when wearing silly slogan-ed green tees to avoid getting pinched. That’s right, we review all three types of proper Irish black gold: Guinness stout. And after we down a few, we riff on which comics characters are shameless stereotyped Leprechauns. Poor little guys. All they want to do is grant some wishes, keep their pot of gold, and hang in the ‘hood.
