The Flying Shamrock would like to say "thank you" for celebrating St. Patrick's Day with us! What a huge success and a a great time. Good music, good friends, and great beer is what St. Patrick's Day is all about. Only 364 days until St. Patrick's Day 2011! - start preparing NOW!

St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17, his religious feast day and the anniversary of his death in the fifth century. The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over a thousand years. On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink and feast—on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage. Celebrate like history demands at The FLying Shamrock!
