About this audio guide
This guide to the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin opens on 16 May 1775, when Dublin Corporation officials arrive with a sheriff and workmen to seal off the brewery's water supply, and find one furious brewer blocking their way. You'll hear about the nine-thousand-year lease Arthur Guinness signed fifteen years earlier for a derelict four-acre site, and the pickaxe he grabbed rather than back down. The guide follows how that standoff shaped the site long after, from a working fermentation plant into the building you're standing in. Listen as you move through the floors of the atrium on your way up.
