Green Beer

Today is the annual "green" day of St. Patrick, the Irish man. In Coral Gables, the annual celebration starts at 4 PM to go until midnight, live band performing among the flowing of beer and food in the streets. Beers are selling like hot cake. Each beer costs US $6, not in cash, but in purchased tickets. The light beer you see is the "Harp" and the darker ones are "Guiness" or "Smithwick." Green is the color of the night and you can't tell there is a US economic recession looming from looking at this crowd.
