My wife and I came to the brewery for the tour and beer tasting. The facilities were very clean and well organized. The atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable, inside and out. All of the decorations from the Dublin factory are cool and they offer a great selection of merchandise in the gift store. The staff were friendly and relatable; they seemed to enjoy their jobs. The tour was alright. It included a lot of great info but what was physically toured wasn t that extensive. But as you learn on the tour, only about a 1/4 of the property is in use by Guinness. Nonetheless, we never left the building, which was disappointing. Our tour guide was great and the audio system they use is efficient. Also, the tour is free! The beer tasting wasn t very extensive but it was informative and the beer offered was diverse and good. I d like to see more beers offered in the beer tasting; 4 small beer samples just isn t enough.
