At the risk of appearing naive AT, what inspired the name? (no p**s take intended)

I do a beer called Athlone Knacker, which is a clone i came up with of a great beer called Galway Hooker. I didn't have the hops to do it this time so i mixed it up a bit and used some Challenger. Why, what did you think? i hope you didn't think i'm a knacker (whistling smilie)

Now why would I think that AT? (tongue in cheek)
I'm just very fond of knowing usless bits of information ("not many people know that")
Got the impression you were either trying to equal or better another brew, was just interested in it's name (normal smile)
Could ask the same question re origonal brew (sheer devilment)
