Guinness

Before leaving Dublin on Thursday morning I made a visit to the Guinness Brewery at St. James's Gate. It is a working Brewery, but there is also a visitor's center and museum inside the original brewery building. The self-guided tour was alright. Learned a few things about the history of Guinness. There were a few exhibits that showcased all of the print and tv advertising that Guinness has had over the years. That was cool to see. They have lots of great commercials. The highlight of the tour was definitely the roof top bar. It is on the 7th floor and is a big cylindrical room with floor to ceiling glass windows looking out over the city of Dublin. A great place to hoist a pint at 10 in the morning.
