| - I don't know about you, but when I step through a doorway and feel like I crossed a international border, or a dateline, or just stepped back into a pub in Dublin, I know it is going to be a good day!
A friend and I were headed to a local well-known brewery for a bite & a beer. As we started to pass Murphy's Law, she asked if I had ever been in there. My honest answer was "no." So, the two of us, being adventuresome and also having been to Ireland together a few years ago (and desperately wanting to go again), made a sharp left and crossed the pond. Yes, it definitely felt as if we had stepped back into a pub that we drank in while we were in Ireland - both in Dublin & Galway.
I had a Guinness Peach (a whole new experience, but I actually like it). Being partial to Guinness, I thought "Ok, so here is where this AZ desert bar is going to fall off the cliff trying to pretend to be Irish." But no, it actually was quite good and I would drink it again. Plain old Guinness be damned!
A little touch of Dublin pubs, a little feel of Irish culture. Worth the visit, if you have shamrocks in your soul instead of scorpions!.
