The Guinness Storehouse Experience

The Guinness Storehouse is Ireland's most visited tourist attraction, welcoming over 1.7 million visitors each year. Located at St. James's Gate Brewery in the heart of Dublin, this seven-storey experience is built inside a former fermentation plant that has been transformed into the shape of a giant pint glass.

Your journey begins at the ground floor with the four key ingredients of Guinness: water, barley, hops, and yeast. As you ascend through the floors, you will discover the history of Guinness advertising, learn about the brewing process, and explore interactive exhibits that bring the story of Arthur Guinness to life.

The highlight for most visitors is the Gravity Bar on the seventh floor, where your ticket includes a complimentary pint of Guinness served with panoramic 360-degree views across Dublin's skyline. On the way up, don't miss the Connoisseur Experience, where you can learn to pour the perfect pint yourself.
