Guinness
It all began in 1759, when Arthur Guinness leased St. James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin and started making his own beer. Guinness Draught was developed later in the 20th century, more specifically in 1959, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the 9 000 year lease on the St. James’s Gate Brewery.

The harp was purposefully chosen by Guinness to appeal to the Irish nationalist pride. As the symbol of Ireland, the harp is displayed facing left in the Guinness logo and right in the official symbol.
