More about Guinness
It takes a thirst for adventure to do things the Guinness way. From the brand's humble beginnings in 1759 to the present day, Guinness has gone to extraordinary lengths to bring you exceptional beer.


The lease of life
You’d be forgiven for thinking the story of ‘Arthur Guinness’ was a myth. But he was very real, and every pint served around the world is one more pint of his undeniable legacy. Arthur Guinness was the first in a long line of Guinness Master Brewers and the craft of brewing at St. James’s Gate Brewery was handed down from generation to generation. Arthur himself most likely developed his passion for brewing from his father, Richard, who was said to be in charge of brewing in the Celbridge estate of Dr. Arthur Price, later Archbishop of Cashel’
On 31st December 1759, he signed a NINE THOUSAND YEAR lease on St. James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin. If that’s not belief, we don’t know what is. And now we can see that his belief was a vision.
The Harp
You’ll notice the harp on Irish coins too. In fact, if you see someone tossing a coin in Ireland, you might even hear them call ‘Heads or Harps?’ instead of ‘Heads or Tails.’
By the 1860’s, Guinness stout was available all over the world and the Guinness family were in search of a symbol that would firmly identify Guinness as an Irish product,
and the harp was recognized as the symbol of all that was great about Irish culture and heritage.
When the Irish Free State was created in 1922, the Irish government in turn had to position their harp facing the other way due to trademark registration.
