Brief History of Guinness Beer

A brief history of Guinness beer is examined and explored in our latest video in tribute to St. Patrick's Day. In the video we discuss how Arthur Guinness went from investing 100 British Pounds to becoming the 7th largest company in the world. The video also features a few historical photographs of the brewery itself as well as the operations that took place.
