GUINNESS STOREHOUSE® is the number one visitor attraction in Dublin. It is a "must see" visit on any tour of Dublin and is located in the heart of the Guinness® brewery at St James’s Gate. Housed in an old Fermentation Plant, now the seven-storey visitor experience tells the history of the making of this world famous beer. It is a dramatic story that begins almost 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.
