If you’re struggling to squeeze in a full day of St. Patrick’s Day shenanigans, you don’t have to stray too far from campus. Grab a green beer after class at one of these bars, which all offer early deals during the day. Sláinte mhaith!

“Beat the Clock” at Sign of the Whale: This green beer special is a steal, but prices increase by the hour. Sign of the Whale will offer $0.17 beer from 10 to 11 a.m., $1.17 for the next hour, $2.17 beer from noon to 1 p.m. and $3.17 beer from 1 to 2 p.m. Guinness and Crown Apple cost $5 from open until last call.

Party at Rí Rá Irish Pub: The Georgetown establishment claims to host the biggest celebration on M Street. Begin with traditional Irish breakfast at 10 a.m. and jig your way through the day to live music featuring Irish dancers and bag-pipers. There will also be an ice luge of Jameson Irish Whiskey.

Celebrate at Fadó Irish Pub: The motto for Fadó’s 17th St. Patrick’s Day in the District is “Don’t hold back, hold beers.” Ice Wagon FLU will play at 2 p.m., and band Lloyd Dobler Effect will play at 8 p.m.
