GUINNESS | Before They Were Famous

Guinness was founded in Dublin in 1759. It was first brewed by Arthur Guinness, a brewmaster who dabbled originally with Ale's untill he caught wind of a popular new British Beer being imported to Ireland known as Stout. Arthur decided to brew his own in a disused Dublin brewery which he leased for 9,000 years at the rate of $60 bucks annually. This was the first of many brilliant business and marketing moves Arthur and his kin would carry out into the 20th Century. Guinness is notorious for their one of a kind marketing intially with bold slogan's like 'Guinness Is Good For You' which worked so well pregnant Irish women would drink a glass a day. Guinness now denies these claims but there is true evidence that it is good for your heart and the Blonde Lady in a Black Dress only packs 198 calories. I really need to drink more of that, or maybe less in general.
