The Guinness Brewery

Dating back to 1759, St James Gate Brewery, otherwise known as the Guinness Brewery, was the largest in the world. Although it no longer holds that title, it is still the largest brewer of stout globally. Part of the brewery, the Guinness Storehouse, has since been converted into a museum. It stands seven floors high surrounding a glass atrium in the shape of a pint of Guinness. On the top floor, you’ll find the Gravity Bar with its impressive views of Dublin.
