Things to see:
Glass Atrium
Stand at the very bottom of the world’s largest pint glass, the atrium of the Guinness Brewery experience. Need some perspective on how big it really is? If the glass atrium was filled, it would hold 14.3 million pints of Guinness! The Atrium takes visitors through seven storeys of Guinness heritage and history; from production and the ingredients, recipe and craft of brewing; to transportation and distribution; as well as advertising and sponsorship.
Gravity Bar
End on a high, literally, at Gravity Bar, the Guinness Storehouse’s very own bar – and an experience in itself. At the seventh storey, Gravity Bar boasts 360° panoramic views over Dublin and you can sit back and enjoy the vista and a complimentary pint of the dark stuff, too. Sláinte!
The Store
Don’t leave without exploring the vast souvenir shop to take something back home with you as a memento of your amazing Guinness experience, from pint glasses, to mugs; t-shirts and rugby balls – there are a wide range of options for presents or souvenirs.
