Guinness Storehouse is a seven-story visitor experience that tells the story of Ireland’s iconic drink, bringing to life the heritage of Guinness from its early days to its growth as a global brand, known all around the world. The experience starts where the legacy began, the 9,000-year lease that was signed by Sir Arthur Guinness in 1759. From this point, visitors are taken on a journey of sight, sound, and taste; following the aromas of roasted barley past gigantic original wooden VATs, visitors will head through to our Tasting Rooms where swirling vapours unlock key tastes you’ll find in Guinness’ iconic stout, and a step back in time with our advertising archive to a world where fish ride bicycles, toucans fly and oysters whistle. It’s a dramatic story that begins over 250 years ago and ends in Gravity bar where visitors will receive a complimentary pint of Guinness® while relaxing and enjoying spectacular views over Dublin. Come and explore Guinness Storehouse, providing an unforgettable welcome and a magical journey deep into the heart of the world famous Guinness brand and company.
This Irish institution sits at the heart of the St James’s Gate Brewery, which has been producing the black stuff since 1759. The Storehouse itself dates back to 1904 and is built in the style of the Chicago School of Architecture. The story of Ireland’s most famous export unfolds across 7 floors as the museum snakes its way up to the Gravity Bar, a sprawling space where visitors can enjoy unparalleled views of Dublin whilst enjoying a freshly-poured pint.
