My British brewing buddy loves Woodfordes Wherry, in fact his is back home for a couple of weeks and I am sure he is getting his fill of the Woodfordes products. Welcome to the forum and good luck with your kits. I did a couple of Coopers kits early on in my brewing history. Not bad stuff, just a little too easy to make.

Hi homebrewer 99
Longford is right in middle of ireland

 

[homebrewer_99]

I must have gone around it then... You must be somewhere north of Kilkenny and south of Clonmacnoise (if I remember the spelling correctly).

I was in Ireland in 2003 for a week and drove almost 1100 miles...:rockin:

 

[Mrtickel]

And jesus thats a good bit of drivin 1100 miles fair play to ya.

Hello Gerard, welcome to the forum and to the world of homebrewing. Like most of us, be prepared to become obsessed(fair warning to you)

I have roots in Ireland(great great grandmother left from Dublin in the 1890's?) we know little of her life there but I know I got some true Irish blood in me and that is all that matters!

Maybe when I get a chance to go to the Isle we can meet up and share a pint or 10
