Is it worth going to Ireland in December?

Thanks everybody! We had a trip in October planned but our work schedule only allows a weed and a half in December. We really had our heart set on the fall. We are from Utah which is snow and ski country. Cold weather doesn't bother us but we want to drive around. I think we might wait a while and go in the summer or next fall. I want this trip to be amazing and I don't want to compete with weather, short days and driving in the country side with bad conditions. Thanks for all your honest answers :) Safe Travels everyone!!

Ire;land is great in all 4 seasons. Just remember its jolly chilly in the winter though.
Wrap up warm and you'll love it. The country pub log fires and choons round the hearth are just magical.

If you want to drive around you definitely would be better coming during a non-snow season. Country roads here are awful in the winter. I had visitors here once and we were out west when a storm hit and we ended up being snowed into a tiny village (with nothing to do) for three days.

You'll more than likely find better whiskey in Ireland than whisky.
Incidentally, there's no such thing as Irish whisky.
