What is the Guinness Storehouse?
Arguably the most popular attraction in the city, the Guinness Storehouse offers an interactive, seven-story adventure into everyone’s favorite Irish export. Dating back to 1904 and designed around a pint glass-shaped atrium, the building served as a fermentation plant before opening its doors to visitors.
What can I do at the Guinness Storehouse?
Self-guided tours begin with a visceral introduction to stout ingredients before explaining the brewing process and tracing Guinness family history. The tasting rooms will help you identify each distinctive flavor and the third-floor exhibit invites you to step into some of the brand’s most celebrated advertisements.
Do you get free Guinness?
Each tour includes a complimentary pint of Guinness and there are several options for enjoying it. Skip pouring class at the Guinness Academy and flights at the (supplement-required) Connoisseur Experience in favour of the circular Gravity Bar on the top floor, which offers panoramic views of the city below.
Time Out tip
For an extra bit of fun, you can pay a supplement of €10 to get a photo of your face inprinted onto the head of your pint of Guinness – you’ll find this at Guinness STOUTie experience on the 4th floor.
