About The Guinness Open Gate Brewery:
The Guinness Open Gate Brewery (or OGB for short) is the innovative and experimental arm of one of the world's most beloved breweries. The original location was opened to the public in 2015, on the Dublin site that had been home to Guinness's Product Research Unit, which was founded in 1904. In 2018, the first U.S. location was launched in Baltimore, MD, becoming the first stateside Guinness brewery in more than 60 years. The OGB focuses on creating new and innovative beers, serving unique and global cuisine alongside those beers, and highlighting the spirit of community, inclusivity, and hospitality that are the hallmarks of the Guinness brand.
