Search Intensifies as ‘Best Irish Bar in the USA’ Contest Sparks Major Interest
Irish bars spanning the length and breadth of North America are currently in a heated contest, competing for the much sought after title of the ‘Best Irish Bar in the USA.’ Due to the overwhelming response received from both bars and bar patrons for this Best Irish Bar Contest, Strangford Lough Brewing Company (SLBC) and Irishbeerfinder.com have decided to extend the competition to satisfy interest. “Bar reviews can now be submitted until the 31st October 2010 so that all Irish bars have a fair chance to contend for the title of ‘Best Irish Bar in the USA’,” commented Emma McCarey, Marketing Executive for Irishbeerfinder.com.
Just days into the competition to find and name the best Irish bar in the USA and reviews nominating Irish bars across North America are flooding in. Currently in the lead is ‘Croagh Patrick’s Pub’ in Willoughby, OH, with ‘O’Neal’s Irish Pub’ in Philadelphia, PA and ‘Tim Finnegan’s Irish Pub’ in Delray Beach, FL close on their heels. Irishbeerfinder.com has already received hundreds of outstanding reviews from passionate Irish bar patrons and many more are expected throughout the remaining time of the competition.
Grace Lavery, Marketing Manager for SLBC commented, “Based on the quality of the reviews submitted to date it is clear to see how much people value their favourite Irish bar. The beauty of this competition is how easy it is to nominate an Irish bar and help them compete for the title of best Irish Bar.

Every review that is added between now and the extended closing date of 31st October at 7pm ET (Eastern Time) will help the bar climb the competition leader board.
