To make green beer you need just three things:

  • beer
  • a glass
  • green food coloring

On St. Patrick's Day people might want to support the Irish and drink beer from the motherland, but, on any other day, it's important to note that the beer doesn't have to come from Ireland in order to make it green. It works with America's own pride and joy Budweiser just as well, and any other brand of beer for that matter.

I found a couple drops of blue per pitcher works for a light green, and then it doesn't turn everything the beer touches color like using this much green food coloring will.

I want to know how to make dark beers green. My rule of thumb for beers I like are if you hold it up to a light and can see through it, it isn't dark enough. :-)

but what kind of slime? 'slime' is actually just water that is thickened enough to make it move more solid and more slowly. i'd suggest gelatin.

This "instructable" is a colossal waste of time.  You can sum it up in a single sentence. 

'Add some green food colouring to some lager or beer.'

Good ol' green beer. I am kinda disappointed to see Bud being poured into the Celebration Ale glass tho ;) it's one of my favorite seasonal beers along with the Rahr Whiskey Winter Warmer.

Hmm.. green beer you say... neah, I would never trade the pure blond aspect of my beer with anything else, even if it's a special holiday.

 Love the Budweiser in the Sierra Nevada Glass, the color only makes it that much more enjoyable.... :)
vadios says: Mar 17, 2010. 2:20 AM
actually you can try to make it blue or black, or even pink (some kind of a girlish variant)

Any Americans here actually know why we celebrate St. Pattty's day?
robj98168 in reply to shoobyMar 17, 2010. 12:53 AM
"cause there aint no holiday between valentine's day and memorial day and hallmark was getting nervous!" (J/K)

That's the day Saint Patrick drove the serpents out of Ireland, except there were never snakes in Ireland so that welsh man got credit for nothing!
rocklocker in reply to 77Kapn Krunch77Mar 19, 2010. 8:11 AM
     The "snakes" were allegedly the British (protestants) but if you said it out loud you went to the tower.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
m3harri in reply to shoobyMay 28, 2009. 9:01 AM
Because we can
Mr. Brownie in reply to shoobyMar 16, 2009. 2:45 PM
It's a tradition that came over when the Irish came. And the reason why there are so many Irish and alcohol jokes is because we enjoy life.
orangesrhyme in reply to shoobyOct 3, 2008. 4:55 PM
No, but I know that wearing green is a misconception. Wearing green gets you pranked by the leprechauns. You're supposed to wear blue.
kog103 in reply to shoobyOct 1, 2008. 2:29 PM
Isn't it that we celebrate it in Ireland because that is when we think he died, and he is our patron saint.

Snakes!
