The Guinness Storehouse is located at the St James Gate Brewery in Dublin, Ireland.
It is estimated that the Storehouse has received over 4 million visitors since first opening in 2000 and has become a prominent feature on Dublin’s tourism landscape. A new wing was opened in 2006 which includes a live demonstration of the modern brewing process.
The tour takes you through 7 levels of the building, which are designed around an atrium shaped in the form of a Guinness glass.
The entire building explains the history of beer through various multimedia exhibitions which illustrate the ingredients, production, storage, transportation, and marketing surrounding Guinness.
Arthur Guinness signed a 9000-year lease when he first began making Guinness at the brewery and a copy of this document is available for viewing at the bottom of the glass atrium.
You will also be treated to several bars throughout the tour. The Perfect Pint bar allows you to pour your own Guinness pint, and as a bonus, give you the opportunity to have your selfie placed on top of the pint.
The fifth floor introduces visitors to the Brewery Bar where one can enjoy authentic Irish cuisine and refreshments. The meals served in this bar are prepared by using Guinness as part of the ingredients and as a pairing with the food.
You can also find the Guinness Archive on your tour, where visitors can view records dating back all the way to 1759. There are photographs, videos, maps, posters and other items that document the history of Guinness in Ireland and the world.
The tour ends on the 7th floor where you will find the Gravity Bar, a 360-degree bar with a glass lining that allows you to view the entire Dublin from the best view in town.
Bypass all the queues and make use of the Guinness Skip the Line ticket and enjoy the freedom to explore at your own time. It also helps add some more hours to your travel schedule by not having to wait in long lines!

There is a lot to see as you walk through this facility. Very educational about beer in general as well as Guinness. The Guinness at the end was definitely the payoff for walking up to the lounge with a view of Dublin.
