From the Book: Beer in Dublin
Photo by amsher/Frommers.com Community, Dublin's Temple Bar Area Renowned for producing Ireland's most famous export (Guinness), drinking beer is a way of life in Dublin. Despite the high prices, you'll find pubs and traditional alehouses full of happy patrons. Where to Drink: No beer pilgrimage would be complete without the Guinness Storehouse tour, which ends with the requisite free pint in the Gravity Bar. Perhaps the most celebrated beer institution is the Porterhouse and its nine exclusive beers. Throughout Dublin, local brews are served at hundreds of authentic pubs, including Dawson's Lounge, the traditional Stag's Head, and the cool Solas, which has a summer beer garden. Average pint of lager: 4.50 Euro
