Padraigs Nitro Irish Stout is available @112eatery
Made from authentic Irish grain imported from Cork, Ireland and named after Dullahan, Ireland`s headless horseman who rode a horse that was darker than the darkness itself.
It`s canned with liquid nitrogen that explodes into an amazing, dark and creamy cascade of Irish beer upon opening.

It`s the 5th Tuesday of the Month, which means we`re having a special `Blue Moon` Traditional Irish Music Session in the taproom tomorrow from 6-9 PM.
What is a Traditional Irish Music Session? It is an informal gathering of musicians who meet to play traditional Irish music in a social context and unlike a rehearsed performance, a session usually features musicians sitting together and playing for their own enjoyment and the shared "craic" (fun) of the group.
