A Presidential FIRST


President Barack Obama will reportedly serve beer brewed at the White House for St. Patrick's Day. He gave a bottle of Chicago brewer Goose Island's Urban Wheat 312 beer to British Prime Minister David Cameron last summer.


During this year's Super Bowl, President Obama created a stir by offering guests at the White House beer that he'd brewed himself. And now the president reportedly plans to have another batch of his homebrew on hand March 17 — that's right, for St. Patrick's Day.

According to the Irish Central website, when Obama announced that this March is Irish American Heritage Month, he also pledged to serve his own White House Honey Ale — made with honey from the White House garden beehive — to help celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

Obama, who said he will pay for the beer-making equipment himself, has made presidential history by being the first U.S. president to brew beer at the White House.
