Wednesday 21 June Kerstin Krischanitz Guinness Brewery

We got up at eight, then we went to St. Mary's secondary school. At 2pm we met at Tara Street station (DART). After this we went to a photo gallery. The artists were, among others, Fred Reilly and Ulla Schildt. It was a graduate show from a Dublin college. Ulla Schildt's photos showed big animals and small children. Fred Reilly's sheep in quick motion pictures. After this some of us went to the Guinness Brewery. There you could see how Guiness was made, the ingredients and the production stages and so on. In the first room you could see a big basin, like a giant sand box, filled with Barley. There was also a waterfall.
The stages of production were shown. Then you could try Guinness beer. One floor above you could answer questions on a touch screen and leave a message on a big advertising column. In the end it was very nice to drink a pint of Guiness in the 7th floor of the scenic bar and see Dublin from above.
