Dark beer, light hearts

Special Events

With green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and leprechauns looming inevitably on the mid-March horizon, Dubliner Irish Pub offers a different sort of St. Patrick's Day event. The popular Hyde Park watering hole shows off its Irish spirit with the annual Great Guinness Breakfast, which, for a mere $15, includes a traditional Irish breakfast with a pint of the dark brew that has made Ireland famous and without the congealed, herb-laced blood otherwise known as black pudding. Irish folk dancers and musicians perform throughout the day and into the night, and celebrants are invited to bring their children and families to the party. I mean, who else would you want with you on an early-morning excursion to get black-out drunk by 3 in the afternoon? Sat., March 17, 9 a.m.-3 a.m., 2307 W. Azeele St., Tampa, 813-416-2162, thedublineririshpub.com.
