Kilkenny, a pretty little town in the middle of the country... well kind of. It is famous in Australia and the States as it is the maker of Kilkenny ale, which is something like Smithwicks but not quite the same. Anyway, here they make Smithwicks and Kilkenny... until the end of this year (I think) as they have been bought out by the some company that bought Guiness and it will be now made in the Dublin plant. It will of course effect the flavour, but who knows, maybe it will be better.....
Kilkenny is a town full of pretty old buildings and plenty a pub amongst them. A great place to get your mouth watered.

| A story of witchery is related to this pub. |
 |
| Langtons, for a refined drinking and dining environment. |
 |
| Mr Moran's bar? |
 |
| Bridge over the River Nore |
 |
| It got too much for some.... |
 |
| I like that the shop holds the man meats, Pork, Beef, Chicken and Bacon. |

| The brewery |
 |
| Original church on brewery grounds |
 |
| Urine samples? I asked "No, it is budwiser we make here for tasting and quality control" replied our guide "So I was right then" I responded. |
 |
| Finishing pint one for all |

Wonderful architecture photos! Love the bridge reflection in the water. Ireland is definitely on the travel list - someday!
Oh joy you will love it, especially some of the little out of the way towns you roll across. :D
