For me as a lover of Guinness is a must Dublin and the Guinness Storehouse.
Dublin is on the podium of the cities I visited and I remained in my heart, in the future I just want to come back.
For a description of the long weekend I spent in the beautiful capital of Ireland, I refer you to my blog and my girlfriend.
Although the Guinness Storehouse is a very globalized reality, far from the artisan dearest to me and which I have more interest, you should visit an attraction because it is well made and plenty to see and learn.
The Storehouse was originally built in 1904 to house the fermentation process Guinness and has fulfilled this role until 1988 ; in November 2000, has been converted into a museum of becoming a main attractions of Dublin .
The core of the building is modeled on a structure central cylindrical glass , and around this giant pint develop the seven-storey building.
the ground floor, we present four ingredient in beer: water, barley, hops and yeast. On the first floor
describes the process of production, the transport sector and manufacturers of barrels, on this floor is a laboratory variant of tasting Guinness.
the second floor is the history of Guinness advertising.
the third floor is an interactive exhibit that invites visitors to reflect on the responsible consumption of alcohol.
the fourth floor is the exhibition on the history of the building, its construction as a plant for the fermentation, in 1904, to its rebirth as a tourist attraction, opened in 2000 and opened to the public.
the fifth floor we can learn how to pour a pint (the certificate is proof of my skill set to hand in my blog !!!!). On this floor there are 2 bar and above the exhibition "My Goodness My Gilroy" dedicated to the works of John Gilroy, the artist who created the famous Guinness advertising campaigns from 1930 to 1960.
Finally at the top of the Storehouse is the Gravity Bar where you'll find a pint of Guinness that you can enjoy enjoying a 360 ° panoramic view of Dublin!
