Shanty Ale

One of my uncles recently found out that my grandfather (mom's dad) has a beer named after his aircraft that he flew in World War II. My grandfather, Lt. Gilbert O'Brien was a fighter Ace and flew a P-51B Mustang that he named "Shanty Irish." Below are links to a couple articles. Warbird is sponsering a 5K and 10K road race this May in Indiana. My mom and some of her siblings plan to attend...GO O'BRIENS!:)
