[b:20zcwuyy]Co Down ale named among 50 best beers in the world[/b:20zcwuyy]

A real ale produced by a tiny brewery in the North has been named one of the 50 best in the world.

The Whitewater Brewing Company in Kilkeel, Co Down, has won the accolade for its Clotworthy Dobbin Ale.

It will now be in the running for the International Beer Challenge's Supreme Champion award later this year.

Good for them <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Proper order. It is a damn fine beer.

Good stuff! I have only had their Belfast Ale, and I found it quite a nice session type ale. Any comments Cypressbob?

I've always been a big fan of their beers. Clotworthy on cask is hard to beat I must say...
