St. Patrick’s Day Special: Kombucha Beer Round-up

Growing up in Chicago, we were all Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. While in Ireland it began as a religious holiday, in the U.S. there’s a whimsy to St. Patty’s that is unmatched throughout the year and it was originally established as a guilt-free feasting (and drinking) binge day during Lent.
