My wife and I did the group tour followed by dinner. Our guide was friendly, personable and knowledgable. Great views of Dublin from the Gravity Bar. I love Guinness and they didn't let me down, I got a proper pour served at the optimum temperature. Dinner was beef stew or cabbage and bacon, both were awesome. A nice Cabernet with dinner. Overall it was a great night out,. read more

Guinness Storehouse - Shamrock - Breweries Near Me - Dublin, D

I am a huge, avid fan of Guinness, and made the pilgrimage to the storehouse a few months ago. First of all, the giftshop is like being a kid in a candy factory. Holy hat. This place did have a few downfalls though. The crowds are one of them. The line to the Guinness Academy was incredibly long. And the Sky Bar was packed with tourists. Ok I get it, I'm a tourist too. But man it was so crowded. I didn't even attempt to go to the Guinness Academy, which is really a shame because I would have loved to learn how to pour a pint in Ireland. I did end up learning how to pour the perfect pint from an Irish woman while I was staying in England, so it wasn't a huge deal. Also, here's a little word of advice. If you go, have your free pint before you eat lunch or dinner. My sister and I ordered the Guinness stew along with a pint, (DELICIOUS), and then went to the Sky Bar for our free one. Big mistake. I could barely get through my free Guinness because I was SO full from the stew. In fact I was falling asleep on the bus ride home. Don't eat that stew for lunch it'll knock you off your feet. read more

The Disneyworld of beer. If you don't mind the crowd of tourists then sure, you should give it a go. The visit is quite informative and rich, and the give free audiotour at the front desk. You should allow a good two hours to get the most of your experience there. The museum takes place on 5 floors, each one dedicated on a different aspect of the product (production, advertising, ...). You get the chance to pour your own pint and a free tasting session. Granted it's not the best part of the visit, but it's still free beer! Lastly, you can enjoy your "complimentary" pint (included in the ticket) at the panoramic bar, which has a nice view of Dublin. Pick your day carefully though, I went there on a Saturday and it was absolutely packed!(as you would expect). The bartending staff was very Nice and patient, considering the fact that it was overcrowded. read more

A must in Dublin for beer drinkers. 5 levels of beer museum that is very informative on the history of Guinness. My wife and I loved pouring our own perfect pint. The gravity bar was really fun. Really crowded, but not too difficult to maneuver around for a good spot to look out over the city. Would recommend the online ticket option to speed up waiting in line (we waited 10 min wait on a Friday afternoon). read more

Guinness Storehouse - Learning to pour perfect pint - Breweries Near Me - Dublin, D

Beautiful building with everything you need to know about Guinness! So many hands on activities for the old and the young! And beer, oooooh and the beer...best Guinness I ever had from the tap in my life! I didn't believe when someone told me it would be...but it's almost like they sneak the best batches and keep them for themselves! This is must see if ever in Dublin!!! read more

Guinness Storehouse - Can't get this in the states...well you can, I never seen it before! - Breweries Near Me - Dublin, D

If you are in dublin definitely you should go to the Guiness Store house. I thought the excursion was going to be in a brewery itself, but unfortunately it was just a storehouse and the whole brewing process was only shown on TV screens. The gravity bar at the top of the museum has amazing views though. read more

See all

I will make my post shorter than the others. If you are looking for a tour of the brewery, or how the beer is made you have come on the wrong tour, If you are looking for a historical tour of Guinness, well still wrong tour, they have a little history on the tour, but that's about it. No roasters, fake equipment displays, no mash runs, no hops and definitely no bottle, keg, or labeling conveyor systems. Personally I would have preferred to go to a local pub than waste the 40 euros. read more

I brought my friends here one weekend. The queues were fairly big, but saying that it was the May bank holiday. If you are going, pre book your tickets, it cuts the time going in. You can get a guided tour but we just around ourselves. Its something everyone has to do at some stage plus you get a free Guinness when you reach the top ;) read more

Recall all those museums your parents took you to as a kid--where everything was interesting and overwhelming and by the end of the day, you were tired and a bit grumpy. Well, this is such a place but for adults, with the end result being that instead of grumpiness, you end the day in drunkenness. If I hadn't been so hung over from the night before, I would have had a better time, but that isn't Guinness' fault. Well, actually it is, but you know... read more

Definitely a must if you're in Dublin for a day or weekend. The self paced tour is very interesting and a fun time. Take the opportunity to pour a perfect pint and enjoy it in the sky bar! read more

Came here yesterday and was super crowded! €25 a person and I felt they could have done a little more of a presentation.... don't get me wrong I liked the set up and all that, but having done Heineken in Amsterdam they actually did a tasting and walked you through it a bit... would have liked to have seen something like that. Did like the visual representation of the ingredients including the fountain though! Just wished the top floor wasn't so PACKED. Couldn't even move in there without bumping into someone. Literally got so hot in there that the windows steamed up and you couldn't see the beautiful view anymore. Most likely a one and done... read more

Tour was really well done, the building was very modernized, with old rustic aspects, like the big mash cauldron and large vat you can stand in for perspective. The beer of course was amazing. They said between 1-3 days new! We went to the top and enjoyed the views while we enjoyed our pour. It was crowded and loud, but a good atmosphere for a quick beer. read more

The funnest part of Dublin. You get to drink at 12 pm and not get judged for it. Free samples are also a must during the tour!

Very interesting if you don't know anything about beer. The top of the tower is great but always crowded. Overall I enjoyed it though!

the tours are great and the view from the 7th floor is amazing. I recommend doing a tour during the day so you can see the city view in day light! read more

I was so impressed by the Guinness Storehouse. The history, The people and of course the Guinness a must see when in Dublin. Views from roof deck were pretty however crowded and slightly over priced but it is to be expected in such a touristy spot. read more

If you are only going to be in Dublin for a short amount of time, skip this. For our last day in Dublin we had Jameson Distillery scheduled and then Guineans. Maybe we got spoiled with how great Jameson was but we did not love Guinness. It is a self guided tour that was way over crowded. If you are in Dublin go during a week day. They do give you a bunch of samples of beers which is great. read more

Fantastic experience for anyone who loves a pint of Guinness! Easily manageable crowds and a good flow cart made the place seem not so cramped. Loved the historical aspect of Guinness through the ages, and especially loved the Guinness University, where we learned how to pour a perfect pint! The rest of the tour was topped off with a visit to the top of the building, where the bar had the best 360 degree view of Dublin! Highly recommended! read more

Guinness Storehouse is a great place if you've never been to Dublin. Learn the history of the Black Stuff through their interactive self-guided tour. At the end you get to taste the freshest Guinness at the very top of the Storehouse. It is an amazing view of the city! Best in the city. The ticket price is worth the pint at the top. read more

I totally recommend checking out this place while you're in Dublin. I enjoyed the tour even though I'm not a huge beer drinker. The tour was very informative and you get to drink a pint of Guinness at the end! read more

Really good family day out (bearing in mind we are an adult family). I went here with my parents and sister for a day out and about around town. The museum is really interesting and there's loads of art to look at too! The building is also gorgeous. I am from Dublin at went for the first time this year (24 years old) and I definitely feel like I should have gone sooner. It's an experience that could be enjoyed numerous times and I will definitely recommend it to tourists too! Also - the view from the gravity bar is a nice way to see Dublin in a totally new way! read more

This is a really fun place with an amazingly beautiful modern museum. Don't expect to see any humans telling a story. The is a bar with music and a few food options one below the top floor. I recommend it. read more

Waste of time and money. Poorly organized, over-priced, and totally disappointed. Payoff at the end was only redeeming feature. Too many folks let inside so long lines for taste room and pour academy. And why the heck are children allowed in here? Elementary school kids taking a majority of seats in gravity bar? Really? 40 Euro for two adults was 20 too much. Guess I expected more for the money but this is plain and simple a money grab for Guinness. My expectations were obviously too high based on their consistent quality stout. My bad...don't make the same mistake I did. read more

I didn't understand why this would be the number 1 attraction in Dublin until I finally got to experience it. This place is more of a fancy/informative museum with a lovely skydeck on top than a brewery. We bought tickets online because we heard the lines can be long and prices may vary depending on the time of the day you are planning on visiting. As soon as we got it we immediately went to the skydeck to enjoy a lovely pint of guiness and then made our way down to check out the other exhibits. My second favorite part was learning how to pour the perfect pint of guiness and earning a printed certificate (spoiler alert they give those to everyone!). Overall this place was huge and definitely allow 2 hours to see everything. read more

Basic tourist location. Worth it if you're looking for something to do (and want a free pint) but plenty of other things to see and do in Dublin I'd put ahead of this on the to do list. read more

We went to the Guinness Storehouse on our second day in Dublin. We booked the connoisseur tour. It is a tour with about twelve people in a special bar. Our guide was informative and fun. We got to try different Guinness samples and learn how to pour our own Guinness at the end. It was a lot of fun. After the tour, we went up to the roof bar where the views are incredible and we enjoyed a complimentary drink. Then we went down to the store and purchased some souvenirs. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and try the tour again with a newbie. read more

Really disappointed in this tour. My husband and I came here and paid €36 to get in. You get a shot glass of Guinness to sample, and then you go to a tasting room and receive 3 1/2 pints of beer to try. We did not want to sit and drink three glasses of beer, so we asked the bartender if we could exchange our tickets for 2 closed bottles of beer. She said to go down to the gift shop and they can exchange our tickets for that instead. she lied to us. They could not exchange our tickets, and we did not have time to sit and drink three glasses of beer. So we wasted our €36 on the tour. Little trick you do not have to pay for the tour or for the sample. Your ticket for is for the 3 glasses of beer at the end. If you want to go to the tour and just have a sample of Guinness you can do all of that for free. Don't fall for paying €36. read more

This was definitely a last minute trip to the museum. And I don't love beer so I didn't have high hopes for this. So when I got there and realized that it was more of a personal tour instead of a guided tour I was not feeling it even more, just because I prefer guided tours. If you love beer and Guinness then this would possibly would be fun for you. But I don't think it was worth 20€. Choose wisely! read more

Went for the 9:45am self-guided tour and it was already packed. The pouring experience was good and the most interactive part. The gravity bar was very crowded. We had to wait just for some standing space by the windows. Not an amazing experience, but good for first-timers in Dublin. read more

A must see tour if you are in Dublin. Plan to spend 2 to 3 hours on the site. Mostly a self guided tour with lots of interesting interactive displays and videos. Do the tasting room tour and skip the self pour bar. Go up to the 7th floor to redeem your ticket for a fresh pint and a 360 degree view of Dublin and the Wicklow mountains. Go early as line ups start after 10:30. Opens at 9:30. It is a 25 minute walk from Trinity College. read more

This is a huge place but it was easy to navigate. You enter on the ground floor and slowly move through exhibits on each floor until about floor 4 when you decide you've learned all you'll ever need to know about Guinness! Then head to the top for a pint of Guinness, an incredibly packed top floor! But, with amazing Dublin views. I enjoyed the experience but wouldn't necessarily go back UNLESS I knew for sure that it was not crowded. I'm giving it 4 stars for sheer size and artistry of the exhibits and for a fantastic pint of Guinness :). read more

Thouroughly enjoyed my experience at this brewery. With entertaining visuals and multiple levels of the brewing process to see, Guinness Storehouse is sure to please. read more

Never tasted Gunnness before my visit here - now I live on the stuff !! A self paced informational tour through the Guinness factory where you can learn as much or as little as you want. it costs aroubf 15 euros per adult to enter, but that entitles your to a free pint in the viewing bar right at the top - what a fantastic view over Dublin. you also get a taster 1/2 ping as you progress though. One thing I noticed lacking here was there was no mention of the new Guinness Red ?? if it illegal to mention it in Ireland ?? A good value tour rewarded with a pint of the black stuff. TIP - If you go on the Dublin tour bus (25 euros for a day) you get a discount voucher off the entry price. read more

Me and my wife went to dublin this weekend, just for a short trip and thought we had to visit the guiness storehouse. It was well worth it. I had never tasted guiness before i got there and thought there was no better place to do it. you take your own time to walk around the storehouse and learn how much they put into the guiness and learn about the history of the place before you get to the top of the building in a glass room and enjoy your free pint of guiness. i think if you go to dublin you have to visit the Storehouse. read more

If you are going to Dublin then the storehouse is a must visit. the whole building is modern combinded with old in a nice way and you really feel like you have earned that free pint when you get to the domed shaped bar at th top read more

Guinness Storehouse - Breweries Near Me - Dublin, D

This tour wasn't bad. Obviously, the free samples and free pint are a nice add on. The place was packed, and sadly the gravity bar was so full of people and strollers it was near impossible to enjoy the view. The tour wasn't as informative as I had thought it would be and felt like this was more geared towards eating at the restaurants and buying some gifts from the gift shop. read more

If you are visiting Dublin this should be on the top of your list of things to try. You have to take the tour which is well worth the price! They take you through an interactive tour where they show you exactly how things are done to make the guinness and then you have an option of pouring your own guinness or getting a pint at the sky bar. The sky bar is a must-do. They pour you your pint and on the top they put a shamrock design then the whole bar is made of glass which overlooks all of Dublin while you enjoy your drinks with friends. The guinness is the best guinness I have ever tasted in my life. So fresh Wonderful experience would definitely come back and try again! read more

This post is for someone who doesn't like the taste of Guiness and is visiting Ireland. Here's the thing, it was awesome to learn how they make such a famous beer and to see the view of Ireland from their tower... I just don't like the taste of Guiness. Which is saying a lot for the tour itself, because the guiness you get at the end was not appealing to me at all. Although I do still have the glass that they give you. Also you learn how to pour a Guiness which was very interesting. When I sit at a bar now I know if the bartender knows how to pour it properly which is cool. Completely worth the money. read more

Being told this was a tourist trap- we were definitely skeptical about what we were in store for. Hands down if your in Dublin this is a MUST SEE/MUST DO! Although I highly highly recommend buying tickets in advance through Viator to skip the line to get in! This place has 7 floors of greatness. The 7th floor is the tasting room and theres 360 degree views of Dublin. Great place and we all had a Great time. read more
