GREAT post Stuart!
Thanks, Jack. It's the thought that counts.
Oh, yes.
Fine stuff, there.

I spent some time this afternoon sitting socially distanced with neighbors who had stouts of various brands (I had none at home). It was so pleasant that I failed to run to the store for a fresh supply of Irish whiskey, leaving me with a mere two bottles from which to sip. In this drear time, I need to make do, and nay complain.
Well, it wasn't all drinkin' and such unhealthy stuff.

Hey....never know
After I read your post on trying everything, I literally searched for "Breast Milk Stout"...I don't know why, it just came to mind. I couldn't believe one appeared

If we’re quoting Ogden Nash, how about a limerick about being drunk. Seems appropriate for St. Patrick’s Day.
There was an old man in a trunk.
Who inquired of his wife, “Am I drunk?”
She replied with regret, “I’m afraid so, my pet.”
And he answered, “It’s just as I thunk.”

Same poet: "A Drink with Something in It"If we’re quoting Ogden Nash, how about a limerick about being drunk. Seems appropriate for St. Patrick’s Day.

There is something about a martini,
A tingle remarkably pleasant;
A yellow, a mellow martini--
I wish I had one at present.
There is something about a martini,
Ere the dining and dancing begin,
And to tell you the truth
It is not the vermouth:
I think that perhaps it's the gin!
[Not sure if that's exact--going from memory.]

Thanks, jack, and condolences for your impractical and incomplete St. Patrick's Day. Mine was about as confused, though I rallied, barely, at the end.
Tonight, I savored, hunkered in our kitchen, another Quarantini (think rye whiskey Manhattan). And maybe another. The Case Fishtail that I was totin' today looked things over, but did no culinary chores (frankly, it scares me).

Oh boy! Now that's just showing off, Vince!
I just had breakfast and I'm hungry again.
We have an Irish tavern in our town that brings in a tanker of green beer for Saint Patrick's day. What a wild time it was back when I was young, single and lived near by. With all the restaurants closed I'm not sure what they are doing with all of that beer.

That looks very satisfying, Dave!

, my Guinness Draft Stout happens to be bottled, and for Tuesday's St. Patrick's Day, I paired it with a Killian's Irish Red:
My supper on 3/17/20 wasn't nearly as festive as yours, Vince, but I have been enjoying a bottle of Guinness Extra Stout every few days recently (pic is old though):
