It was clear that the COVID-19 pandemic had hit Michigan around this time last year, with officials canceling Detroit's longstanding St. Patrick's Day Parade. A year later and the virus remains a threat: Detroit's St. Patrick's Day Parade is once again canceled, but the state has loosened restrictions to allow bars and restaurants to open for indoor dining again. Remember: gathering in a crowd without a mask is still dangerous, but if you're determined to drink a beer and eat a corned beef sandwich, we looked up to see what local bars are doing this year.
