Hole 18 - Guinness Storehouse & Gravity Bar What would Dublin’s pubs be without Guinness stout? No ‘Pubs and Golf Clubs’ visit to the Irish capital would be complete without a pilgrimage to the Guinness Storehouse at St. James’s Gate, where you’ll learn plenty about the world famous beer including the brewing process and the Arthur Guinness story. After you have seen how it’s made, it’s time to taste the famous product. Hovering above the roof of the Storehouse is the Gravity Bar, and with a pint of Guinness in hand and incredible 360-degree views over the streets of Dublin, it’s the perfect position to contemplate James Joyce’s puzzle…Long Hall: (51 South Great George’s Street) Further Information Where To Stay Clontarf Castle Hotel: This luxurious and picturesque Dublin Castle Hotel is located just two miles from Dublin city centre and just five miles from Dublin Airport.
