## About

For 200 or odd years, Ireland's finest ale, porter and cider poured out of a little laneway in Clonmel.

What started in 1798 as Thomas Murphy's brewery, became William Magners Cidery in 1932.

Today it is home to the Dowd's Lane Brewing Company. A place where beer and cider made by those, and for those, with a taste for a good sup.

After testing and tasting, two centuries of recipes, we have faithfully revived our favourites.

Cheers! Or as we say around the alley, 'Alley Up!'
