First let me insert my little protest and say the the best Irish beer isn't green at all, and shouldn't be:
Having said that, 'tis a fine American tradition to turn the rivers of Chicago and all beer everywhere green for a day.
And how does one make green Beer? It's not as easy as you think. Well, yes it is. Courtesy of

No special process is involved in producing this St. Patrick's Day novelty drink. Simply add 5-6 drops of green food coloring to your beer and gently stir. Go for a bright color because a yellow-ish green is off putting no matter how fast you plan to down your drink. It is also best to go with lighter ales as opposed to a dark stout, like Guinness. To get a green color out of a Guinness, you would have to add enough food coloring to turn your teeth green when you take a sip.
Yeah, leave the Guinness alone. Pollute the Miller Lite, no harm done there. Speaking of Guinness, le's looka t some more.
Oooooh yeah. But this post is about green beer.
OK, done with that. Well, one more.
Have a great weekend! And don't drink until you're green.
