If you’re a lover of Guinness, you have to visit the Guinness Storehouse while in Dublin, Ireland. Located in the heart of St. James’ Gate, the Guinness Storehouse was at one time the fermentation plant of the brewery. Today, they offer a one-of-a-kind Guinness experience where you can hear the history of Guinness while taking in the views of Dublin.

There are two experiences to choose from—the Welcome Back Tickets which is €15.00 (roughly $17.50) or the Guinness Uncovered which is €30.00 (roughly $35). The Welcome Back Ticket includes exploring the ingredients, history, and culture of Guinness, and a pint of Guinness or a soft drink to enjoy at Gravity Bar. The Guinness Uncovered offers the same things, as well as learning how to pour your own pint of Guinness and 60 minutes with a Beer Specialist featuring a tasting session.

When you’re done with the experiences, be sure to check out one of the two restaurants—Arthur’s Bar and 1837 Bar & Brassier. The menu has been uniquely crafted to contrast or compliment the stouts and beers and it’s made local Irish ingredients.

Right now the Guinness Storehouse is closed due to Irish governemnt guidlines until they recieve further notice. Normaly the hours of the Guinness Storehouse are Sunday to Thursday from 11.30 to 19.00 (last entry 17.00) and Friday to Saturday from 11.30 to 21.30 (last entry 20.00).
