Go Green: Top St. Patrick’s Day Parties 2009
March 11, 2009 

It’s that time of year again when you drink during the day, sometimes for days on end. No, it’s not another random Tuesday—it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Get ready to rock with these St. Patty’s festivities, including an epic pub crawl that aims to break the Guinness World Record. Because it’s not a real world record unless there’s beer involved.

St. Patty's "Luck of the Irish" Pub Crawl
The Village Pourhouse
64 Third Ave. (@ 11th St.)
East Village 212.979.BEER
The phone number says it all—dial it up at this epic pub crawl, starting at the Village Pourhouse and four other locations, that spans over 100 NYC bars. For $30 you can get a three-day pass for $1 Bud drafts, $2 Bud bottles, $3 well drinks, and $4 Jamesons. Register online—your only moment of sobriety has to be when you show up to get your pass. $30, Sat.-Sun 3/15-3/16., Tue. 3/17.
South Street Seaport Irish Stroll
Stone Street Tavern
52 Stone St. (Coenties Alley & Hanover Sq.)

Kegs & Eggs
Whistlin' Dixie's Texas Tavern
