Scott... if we were in Boston, we may survive being a pure and true Irish pub, but in South Carolina we will have to offer American beers. That being said, the pubs I frequent in Ireland all have Bud and MGD.

you can't swing a dead cat without hitting an Irish Pub in Boston. Would you like me to check some out? get menus, etc.?
the ones I've been to have very simple fare and lots of beer. they are about bar stools (and some patrons) that were there since the early 1900's. if you are going to go authentic, consider finding some ancient wooden beams, bar, tables and chairs in Ireland and filling a container. with all the pseudo-experience chain restaurants out there, I think it would be worth looking into a truly authentic experience. music is a must, and brings in new customers.
that's an important point: to some degree, it's easy to get people into the door once.
what are you going to do to keep them coming back? what will make your place "the place" to have a beer and relax?
sounds very exciting!
