Arthur Guinness
Arthur Guinness signs a 9,000-year lease on a brewery at St. James’s Gate in Dublin. It costs him an initial £100 (nearly $147 dollars) with an annual rent of £45 ($66 dollars) – this included crucial water rights.
The brewery covers four acres and consists of a copper, a kieve, a mill, two malthouses, stables for 12 horses and a loft to hold 200 tons of hay. |
