Web Exclusive.HistoryThe most famous Dry Stout in Ireland, and in arguably the world, is Guinness ¨. Arthur Guinness started his stout, or "porter" as it was then called, business in 1759 using an inheritance of what would be $150 US by today's standards. More incredibly, he signed a 9,000 year lease on a run down brewery now known as St. James Gate in Dublin. The original rent on the lease was about $70 per year and Arthur Guinness sought such long lease to ensure there was always a supply of of the essential resource for brewing stout - water. By 1930, nearly one out of every ten Dublin men depended on the Guinness ¨ brewery directly or indirectly to earn their livelihood. In addition, Arthur and his successors set the Guinness ¨-employee standard of living well above local expectations at the time. Wages were between 10% and 20% above the average in Dublin, and paid vacations, free medical care, homes and education were all provided. And to top it off, workers received free Guinness ¨ to drink every day. Guinness ¨ is a great Irish beer with an intriguing history. |
