Head to Beale Street in Downtown Memphis on Saturday to drink some beer and check out the 38th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
The parade starts at 3:30 p.m. at Fourth and Beale and goes up the street to Second and Beale. It’s always a good time. You can never go wrong with beer and bagpipes!
Speaking of, maybe I’ll try Guinness’ new Black Lager. It’s featured in the video below, along with a kilted man and a surprise.
On this St. Patrick’s Day, Evan Benn, St. Louis Post Dispatch beer columnist and Hip Hops blogger, shows how to make Irish beer bread.

Just before the arrival of St. Patrick’s Day, you can get your Irish on.
