Touring the Guinness Storehouse

The Guinness Storehouse tour celebrates the history of the classic brew. An exhibition demonstrates the ingredients that go into Guinness. Classic factory equipment is on display. There is a also a survey of old promotions and a tutorial on tasting. The tour concludes with—what else?—a complimentary pint.

While the public is directed to the Guinness Storehouse, the rest of the plant remains active.

The reward. I have got to learn to take the picture before I start drinking.

The toucans make a special delivery.


Note:  My only mistake? Two beers on no sleep. My plan for the rest of the trip? A Guinness a day!
