Guinness launched The Open Gate Brewery today, in a move which will see the experimental brewery open to the public for the first time ever in its history.

In the coming weeks, on Thursday and Friday nights from 5.30pm to 10.30pm, after reserving a place online, beer enthusiasts will be able to step inside. Here, they can meet the brewers and learn more about how the beers they are drinking were created as well as sampling brewing innovations.

The experimental brewery is by no means a new addition to Guinness though. In fact, an experimental brewery has been based at St. James’s Gate for over 100 years, where the brewers are given license to explore new recipes, reinterpret old ones and experiment freely to bring new beers to life.

As well as pouring the famous Guinness stout and the latest Brewers Project beers such as Hop House 13 Lager, Guinness Dublin Porter, and Guinness West Indies Porter, the brewers will be sharing early, small batch versions of their experimental beers to try, which will only be available in The Open Gate Brewery. A selection of other new Guinness beers from around the world, which have not been available to date in Ireland, will now also be exclusively available to visitors in The Open Gate Brewery.

Those interested in visiting, should log on to www.guinnessopengate.com, call (01) 4712455 or email info@guinnessopengate.com to reserve a place. Entrance to The Open Gate Brewery is €6 per person and the entrance fee includes some sample beers to taste on the night.
