Guinness Storehouse

The Storehouse is a former fermentation plant at St James's Gate, where the brewery has stood since the 18th century. The seven floors are built around a central atrium shaped like a pint glass and cover the ingredients, the brewing, the cooperage and the advertising. The route is self-guided with audio guides in several languages. It finishes at the Gravity Bar, a glass-walled room with a view over the whole city.

What to look for

• The atrium and the floor on how the beer is brewed
• The advertising floor with decades of posters and films
• A pint, or a soft drink, in the Gravity Bar
• The view over the rooftops towards the Dublin Mountains

Opening hours

Monday to Friday and Sunday the building stays open until 19:00, Saturday until 20:00. Entry runs until 17:00 on weekdays and Sundays and until 18:00 on Saturdays, so the last entry is two hours before closing. The official page says hours are subject to change.
