Well maybe this isn't so surprising but its popularity and longevity have made it Ireland's most successful and recognizable export.
Undoubtedly the most famous Irish export throughout the world, drunk around the globe and loved by millions: It's Guinness.
Arthur Guinness began brewing Guinness in Leixlip, County Kildare, before transferring to St. Jame’s Gate Brewery. In 1759, he signed a 9,000 year lease at £45 per year. That’s how confident he was in his product.
Now, 251 years on, the best selling alcoholic drink of all time boasts of sales exceeding $2.6 billion. To Arthur, Sláinte!
Awesome lease!!! He made a fantastic deal!!!
