GUINNESS HAS been busy gearing pubs across Ireland up for reopening this summer.
The makers of the iconic Irish stout are pulling out all the stops to support pubs and ensure bars get back on track by offering a clean and safe social environment for drinkers to enjoy.
A crucial aspect of that is the offer of a fresh, clean pint of Guinness - something millions have been dreaming of for months.
In order to do that, they’ve deployed some 195 Guinness experts, who have been busy visiting over 10,000 pubs across the island of Ireland to carry out rigorous cleaning over 70,000 lines.
A special line cleaning system, dubbed the Surge 20X, is being used by Guinness.
The system cleans by recirculating rapid flows of water and detergent mix through each of the the lines.
1100 years to create the perfect pint.

Managing Director of Diageo Ireland said “Guinness is committed to the success of restaurants and pubs across Ireland as they begin to safely reopen while adhering to government guidelines.
“Alongside the comprehensive quality plan to guarantee beautiful pints, we have been providing the trade with significant levels of support on all aspects relating to their evolving needs, including the establishment of a €1.5 million Guinness Fund for bar staff and communities impacted by COVID-19.”
