pras Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Finally made it here last night. It had been on my list for a while. I was here for a work event, which was located in a private room off the main floor and next to the "pub" area. There were about half a dozen beers on draft in the private room. There are probably closer to a dozen in the pub area. The upper level has a more formal restaurant. I wasn't really there for the food, so I won't comment on that. I had the house IPA, which was really solid and the "milk stout". The milk stout had a nice creamy mouhtfeel, a gentle sweetness with a backdrop of roasted malt and chocolate--very enjoyable. The event I was at had a tour of the brewery. In the basement there is a "experimental" brewery, which is the nicest "experimental" small brewery I have ever seen--essentially a brewers dream. I have been on a lot of brewery tours and this one really ranked up there. I thought the guide did a good job of explaining the brewing process to novices, but where the tour really shined was with the history of Guinness and the history of the Baltimore property. I won't give up too much, except to note that some of the buildings still are used to aged spirits. Aside from the experimental brewery in the tap room building, there is a larger production brewery where they make Guinness Blonde in large volumes. There is also a shop where you can get shirts, glasses, etc., and beer to go. Certainly worth a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
