A trip to Dublin is a must when visiting the Emerald Isle. Whilst there, I recommend you take in all that the city has to offer; whether it be the history, local sights, the amazing cuisine or the local liquor. On a recent trip there, I decided to do some sightseeing associated with the latter. Everyone is familiar with Ireland’s number one export “Guinness” and the associated side effects. I therefore decided to educate myself on the origins of this beer and the brewing process.
The museum is shaped to resemble a pint glass and is set over 7 floors, enclosed in one of the original brewing storehouses in Dublin. The tour educates you about every single aspect of the brewing process and the history/origins of this national drink. If, like me, the idea of climbing seven floors makes your knees shake, please do not let this put you off, as at the end of every rainbow is a pot of gold…and this is no exception. Upon scaling the dizzy heights you are rewarded with a free pint of Guinness in The Gravity Bar, where you can relax and take in the best view the city has to offer.
