Guinness Storehouse Overview
Opened in December 2000, the Guinness Storehouse is a whole museum dedicated to Ireland's most famous export, Guinness stout. Arthur Guinness first began brewing the 'black gold' on the site in 1759, with the present-day building being designed by the architect A H Hignett in 1904. Used for fermenting and storing Guinness until the 1980s, the Storehouse is a listed building with exhibitions spanning over six floors. Entry to the Guinness Storehouse is through a pint glass-shaped atrium capable of holding 10,000 pints of stout, and there is a free pint of the magic brew for every visitor in the spectacular Gravity Bar which offers spectacular views across the city.
