Guinness Storehouse







When most people think of Ireland and associate only one product with it, Guinness is usually the product they think of. The stout beer that they created is a worldwide phenomenon. When in Dublin, you can visit the Guinness Storehouse, which is an ode to this company. While it is a bit pricey to enter, it is a fun experience and a great way to spend a day.

Unfortunately, on the day we went, it was very crowded due to a cruise ship being in town. Despite that, we still enjoyed learning about the history of Guinness, their advertising campaigns over the decades, the history of the family in relation to Ireland, the process that goes into making Guinness, and much more.

You also get a free pint of Guinness at one of the bars on the premises (bonus!). In addition, at the very top of the building, you get a magnificent view of Dublin and it's a great place to enjoy your free pint of Guinness.
