Just arrived to O’Connell street in Dublin, I bought a green hat, couldn’t find any hot dog stands, but made my way down to the river Liffey.. and it wasn’t green. Nor was any beer in the pubs. Turns out the Irish care too much about their beer to dye it green. I couldn’t say if adding colorants would impact the quality that much, maybe the Guinness is too dark and complex to color, but they could play around with a simpler beer like Budweiser or Heineken. Since I really want to come back sometime, I propose that you use some of that new found wealth on beer and river colorants. If Chicago can do it, so can you.
That being the only disappointments, I was really content and impressed with the Dubliners, their beautiful city, and the buzzing atmosphere during S:t Paddy’s. You can actually talk to strangers without being met by suspicion. And yes, the Guinness is different in Ireland. It is less creamy and tastes better.
And for the exceptional events that I was expecting from this year’s S:t Paddy’s, I was not let down. It is kind of unrelated, but we were approached by this peculiar smiling gardener in of the pubs…
