The beer making tour is probably more information than you ever want to know about the making of beer. It is a self guided tour, so you can cut it off at any time and head for the top floor where you get a beautiful 360 degree view of Dublin and a free pint of Guinness. The gift shop is... More

Great private tour and an interesting beer making process. Free pint included in the gorgeous 360 degree Gravity Bar. We also attended a private dinner and it was very tasty.

Where to start....having never had a 'proper' pint of Guinness before, as in one oured in Ireland, I set about and hit the trail on foot to find the best! I walked from my accomodation in Charlemont Street, took about an hour, followed the street signs and practically walked straight in the front door. I had booked ahead of time... More

My partner had given me the standard "but you can't go to Dublin without going the Guinness Factory!" patter so off we went to wait in a rather large queue even with the advanced booking. To be fair though, this was to be half expected visiting at St Patrick's weekend! The way numerous people describe it as this 'Guinness Factory'... More

If you are visiting Dublin this is something you have to do. They told me only 10% that visit are from Ireland. this is a great building with lots of info on how Guinness is and has been made for hundreds of years. you will need around 2 hours their. the view from the top is superb. i'm going back...

This was great from start to finish! even the 'boring bits' about the history was made interesting! really enjoyed pulling my own pint and going to the Gravity Bar at the end... unbelievable views of the whole city

Had one evening at The Storehouse. The museum looked really good however we were in a group and working our way quite quickly up to the top floor restaurant. We had the sole use of the glass surrounded top floor for a business event and the views were not to be missed. There was plenty of the black liquid to... More

This is not a brewery which would have been cool but...it was an excellent museum and display to depict the process and it was done in a very artistic way. The price is a little steep and it was difficult to find the entrance of the building unless a bus dropped you off there. We walked and practically had to... More

Surprised by the other lukewarm and mixed reviews on Trip Advisor, I went with lower expectations but knew we could not miss the historic and iconic Guinness Brewery. The new facility is based in the old brew/bottling building and is very well presented. They don't advertise it much, but the tour feature to get to learn about pouring a perfect... More
