Ireland's top attraction is the Guinness Storehouse. People from all corners of the world come to visit the birthplace of the black frothy brew and get a taste straight from the barrel.
In November 2000, the Guinness Storehouse opened its doors as a multi-media visitor experience. Thousands of visitors each year enter the pint glass-shaped tower and make their way up through seven stories of interactive exhibits demonstrating the brewing process as well as the history behind this legendary stout. A treat for the senses, the self-guided tour allows guests to look at old ads, touch the barley, smell the hops, hear the waterfall and finally, to taste the finished product.
On the top floor, visitors line up to claim their complimentary pint of Guinness, complete with shamrock flourish, to enjoy in the Gravity Bar. The completely glass-enclosed level provides 360 degree views over the brewery and city.

The "skip the line" tickets were so worth it. As I waited for the rest of the party to find me the queues got bigger and bigger, we just went straight in. I enjoyed the walk around, pouring our own pint (oh and of course drinking it!!!). The gift store was well stocked with a good variety. All of the staff were welcoming and friendly, I'd highly recommend a visit if in Dublin.

Upon entering the pint glass-shaped building, visitors find themselves in the Atrium on the ground floor. Here they find the extensive retail store and the beginning of the interactive exhibit. After getting familiar with the main ingredients in Guinness, people are directed to the next level to learn about the brewing process and the different variations of Guinness that are on the market. Floors 2 through 6 take visitors on an interesting journey back in time to discover the history behind Arthur Guinness, the company and the Guinness Storehouse itself. By the time visitors reach the 7th and final floor, they will be caught back up to the present and ready to enjoy their pint of the legendary brew in the Gravity Bar.
