Boys on the black stuff at The Guinness Storehouse in Dublin
The spot where Ireland’s most popular export was once brewed is now its most popular tourist attraction
ST PATRICK’S Day, St James’s Gate, the home of the black stuff. And I make a confession that almost causes our taxi driver to crash.
“I’ve never tasted Guinness before.”
I tried to explain to the cabbie — who looked angry, if not betrayed — that I’ve never liked the taste of beer.
“Perhaps you’ve come to the wrong place then,” he said.
He couldn’t have been more wrong.
The Guinness Storehouse, where Ireland’s most popular export was once brewed, is now its most popular tourist attraction.
