It's an important and clever distinction. The only bit I can find online is that Kilmeaden cheese is made in Ballyragget, Co. Kilkenny, but I'll check a packing code on an actual packet later.

I think it'd be worth beoir expending some effort in this direction, it's similar to the Beoir approved that was previously discussed but regulated by law and not some private group of whingers©.

I'd be of a similar idea, I'd reject the notion that it is Irish craft beer if it is not produced here. I mean you could have it made in sweatshops in China by Marlboro puffing nappy wearers but it'd also be akin to fraud in my book to call that Irish craft beer.
