Dublin Trip

In early July we took a trip to Dublin with my parents, brother, Travis and brother, Clay, and sis in law, Krystal. We had two main missions. Checking out the Guinness Storehouse and the Old Jameson Distillery. Both missions were accomplished without fail and we even caught some other sights in between. First, the Guinness Storehouse where we got to see each step that goes into making the beer, or "Black Gold" as they call it.
Here are Matt and Jack checking out the grains of barley.Free taste! Yum!
The Crew in the tasting room.
Learning how to pour a proper pint of Guinness. More goes into that you might think at first but an incorrectly poured brew can mess with the taste!
The next day we were on to the Old Jameson Distillery. It was a really interesting tour too! Before the tour there was a private tasting. Jack and I checked out the shop while everyone else had a few sips.
Jack, Travis and I stopped to rum the old mill stone for good luck!
Mom and Clay were lucky to be included in special guided tasting.
