Arthur Guinness signed a nine-thousand-year lease on the St James's Gate brewery in 1759, at forty-five pounds a year — the lease is displayed under the glass floor on the ground level.
The building is arranged around an atrium shaped like a pint, which would hold fourteen million pints if filled. The route climbs seven floors, from barley and hops up to the Gravity Bar at the top, which looks over Dublin through three hundred and sixty degrees — the pint there is included in the ticket.
Getting there
St James's Gate, west of the centre. Luas red line, James's stop, then five minutes on foot.

Rules on site
The ticket is timed and considerably cheaper booked online in advance. The Gravity Bar fills up late in the afternoon: go up first if you want the view — the route works just as well on the way down.
