We've heard many a rumor about the burgeoning craft beer revolution in Italy, but we Beer Chicks don't believe it until we've tasted it. So up went the wheels in LA and down we touched in Rome.

We were lucky enough to be asked back to Latitude 33 lofts to do a little pre-St. Patty's day beer tasting, where we'll be drinking some fun and delicious Irish and Irish inspired beers!  So come on by for a wee-bit of beer and taste some luck of the Irish.  And don't worry, we Beer Chicks haven't sold out!  You won't be drinking any green-dyed fizzy yellow water!  Irish style craft beer is sophisticated, layered, rich, well-balanced and delicious!

(Translation: The toilet is upstairs!)
