Review of: Guinness Storehouse Entrance Ticket
In Ireland, Guinness is called "porter." Guinness is actually stout. You can see how it is brewed in the Guinness Storehouse at the St James's Gate Brewery in Dublin. Guinness is "dark, dry, from Dublin." You can have a jar of porter at the Gravity Bar, at the top of the building and also get a meal and a fine views of Dublin city Arthur Guinness perfected the recipe for Guinness in 1759, and it's become a world-wide best-seller. The Guinness harp is based on the ancient harp in the library of Trinity College, Dublin, which anyone can inspect. By the way, in Cork they drink Murphy's stout. Which is better? I've had both, it's not an argument I'd like to buy into. .…

I was truly overwhelmed by the scale of this place. The building is huge, has several floors and each is dedicated to Guinness beer. I spent quality time there, learned a lot about the beer brewing process and the history of Guinness. Everything is described in detail; interactive installations constitute a valuable addition. Unique ambiance with the visible industrial inner workings makes the visit even more enjoyable. Although it is a touristic and pricey place, you know what you pay for. Halfway through, there is a tasting bar and the views from the sky bar on the top floor are probably the best in Dublin. Have you ever watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory? It is pretty much the equivalent for beer lovers. A must visit in Dublin.…

Not sure if we will visit it again. We visited the museum and winter village. I would say it's not a museum, there are several floors with information about the beer. There is also a bar, restaurant, and shop. But we did not like the fact that while visiting part of the interactive items just were not working. I would like to know if the full exposition is working before buying the ticket. Also, the audio guide was not available. I believe it's because of COVID situation, so we just walked. The winter village was beautiful.…
