Green Beer

 

St. Patrick's Day, celebrated on March 17th, is a holiday that is synonymous with green beer. But have you ever stopped to wonder why we drink green beer on this holiday? In this article, we will explore the history and traditions behind this beloved St. Patrick's Day tradition.

The Origins of St. Patrick's Day

Before we dive into the history of green beer, it's important to understand the origins of St. Patrick's Day. This holiday is named after Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. Saint Patrick was a Christian missionary who is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland in the 5th century. St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17th, the day of Saint Patrick's death.

The Tradition of Green

Green has long been associated with Ireland and St. Patrick's Day. This is because green is the color of the shamrock, a symbol of Ireland and a plant that is said to have been used by Saint Patrick to explain the Holy Trinity to the Irish people. Additionally, green is the color of spring, which is often associated with new life and rebirth.

The History of Green Beer

The tradition of drinking green beer on St. Patrick's Day can be traced back to the early 20th century. In 1914, a New York City bar owner named Dr. Thomas Hayes Curtin wanted to attract more customers to his bar on St. Patrick's Day. He decided to add a few drops of green food coloring to his beer to make it stand out and attract attention. The idea was a hit and soon other bars began to follow suit.

The Science Behind Green Beer

 Today, green beer is made by adding a few drops of green food coloring to a light-colored beer, such as a pilsner or lager. The food coloring is typically added to the beer after it has been poured into a glass, but some bars may add it directly to the keg. The amount of food coloring used can vary, but it is typically a small amount to achieve a light green color.

The Tradition Continues

Today, drinking green beer on St. Patrick's Day has become a widespread tradition, not just in the United States but in other countries as well. In Ireland, however, the tradition of drinking green beer is not as popular. Instead, the Irish tend to stick to their traditional Irish stouts and ales on this holiday.

Other Ways to Celebrate St. Patrick's Day

While drinking green beer may be the most well-known tradition on St. Patrick's Day, there are many other ways to celebrate this holiday. Some popular activities include attending parades, wearing green clothing, and cooking traditional Irish dishes. You can also participate in the tradition of dyeing the Chicago River green, which has been a tradition since 1962.

So, why do we drink green beer on St. Patrick's Day? It's a fun and festive way to celebrate this holiday and honor the traditions of Ireland. Whether you choose to drink green beer or stick to your favorite Irish stout, St. Patrick's Day is a time to come together and celebrate the rich culture and history of Ireland. Cheers!

Tie Dye Fall Days

Fall is finally here when the leaves fall.  When baseball ends and football begins.  The time sandwiched between the dreadful heat in the South and the piles of snow in the North.  This is a beautiful time when the ducks and other fowl migrate.  This would be a rather dull post except to note that Australia has 6 seasons.  Yes the land down under has divided the year into 6 unequal periods.  While there are numerous articles on this situation, many including this one can be read at Wikipedia.  What is even stranger is all the names the various seasons go under.  From English names like "pre-winter" to Indigenous name, I am not 100% clear on this one.  I actually believe that the season timing and names depends upon your location in this vast continent.  If you know more upon this subject, please comment back.

It is fall and time for fall clothes.  Nothing like a new high quality tie dye hoodie or sweatshirt to start the season.  See our collection at tie dye hoodies

I enjoyed a fabulous day in Rexburg ID.  The weather was great and the techie business meetings were awesome.  We ate at the restaurant shown to the left.   Chef Shane's is the name, and I highly recommend it.  From beef to fish to the deserts, the food was wonderful.  The restaurant was a bit hard to find, but the find was worth it.  I give this restaurant a loud shout out.

I would not call this area the hot spot for tie dye, so I probably will not make too many sales this week.  Everyone seemed interested in the tie dye business, but then everyone is extremely polite in this part of America.  There is a lot of outdoor activities here as you would expect being so close to Yellowstone National Park.  While some might find this country a bit bland, I can find beauty in every area.

So today was a bit weird.  Flew from Atlanta to Salt Lake City and then flew to Idaho Falls, ID.  I say a bit weird as most of my flights are direct. Rented a car and drove to Rexburg, ID.  This is one of those trips that takes a day to get there and a day to get back.  So far I do not see much here, but I am pretty comfortable with that environment.  While I live in a suburb outside the "way too big" Atlanta, I still enjoy small towns.  Having grown up in a small farming community, I still like to see the fields as in this part of Idaho.  Everyone seems nice here, and the hotel is nice though strange.  This is one of those hotels trying to present a techie look in the rooms.  Very nice rooms, but then this is farm country.  I know there are tech firms here, so perhaps that is the draw.  Will be an interesting 5 days here.  I am close to Yellowstone, so perhaps a few hours there will help the week.

By the way, the tie dye collared shirt shown above is one of our newest creations.  We call this shirt "Earth Rainbow".  This is a collared shirt you can wear anywhere including to work on casual Friday's.

A short post for the day.  A wee bit tired and still trying to figure out a lot of stuff concerning Google Panda, rankings, and such, so I have a long night of reading ahead.

Shame on Me

Ok.  I have been away for some time (like 2 years).  Shame on me for forgetting my way.  I got really busy with a lot of useless stuff, and I just quit writing.  I now remember that I enjoyed writing and hoping someone would actually read my thinking.  Sure some of my writing is self-serving for the Tie Dyed Shop, but then my business is a big part of my life.  I wake up every day thinking how to push my business forward.  I go to bed every night somewhere between elated and disappointed with how the business day went.  I know that sounds a bit capitalist for a guy selling tie dye, but then some of the flower people (like me) did become an entrepreneur.  I actually feel like a movie line in Paris where the point was made that my income is this big but my expenses are this BIG.  Hey with 6 kids in the rear view mirror and 2 more kids still at home, no wonder I became a business owner and starting selling tie dye.  Perhaps a rustic life in the mountains or Alaska would have been more relevant to my past, but then duty calls.  Now at the age of 61, I need to pay for the last 2 kids and figure how how to support myself and the wife going forward.

Ok.  Like the famous Allman Brothers song, I feel like rambling man.  Speaking of music, I have found that every situation can be tied to a song.  My fondess has always been rock, but I have found great comfort in all forms of music including the blues.  So many great rockers also produced great blues music.  While Eric Clapton could play the lights out in rock, he could sing the lights out in blues.

Perhaps you have favorite blues or rock musicians.  Please comment back as to your favorites.

National Tequila Day

  Bet you did not know that July 24, 2013 is National Tequila Day. I did not know either until I did some poking around the internet. Unfortunately my days with tequila have probably passed. While I certainly enjoyed many a margarita in the past, the older I get the more I just drink beer. That is not say I would every pass up a good tequila drink if offered. A search of the web found that many places celebrate this day along with many web sites, but the creation of the day is a mystery. The day may have been started by a business that has spread throughout the years. Do you have a favorite drink? Let everyone know in the comments. The Tie Dyed Shop provides high quality clothing for the entire family.  We are proud to say that we are a small family owned business that caters to families.  We are an honorable and honest business that you can feel safe with your purchases.   If you need more information to be convinced, please read our unsolicited customer feedback at Customer Reviews.
