Guinness Draught

Guinness is an iconic Irish stout brand that originated in 1759 at St. James's Gate, Dublin. It was founded by Arthur Guinness, who signed a legendary 9,000-year lease on the brewery. Over centuries, Guinness became one of the most successful alcohol brands globally, recognized for its dark color, creamy head, and nitrogenation.

Today, Guinness is produced in nearly 50 countries, though the core 'Guinness Draught' for the European market is primarily brewed at the original Dublin brewery. The brand is now the flagship beer of the British multinational beverage giant Diageo. The ownership reflects a transition from a family-run Irish brewery to a central part of one of the world's largest premium spirit and beer companies, headquartered in London.
