DIAGEO - IRELAND

GLASSPHEMY

TO RESTORE THE RITUAL

OF THE PERFECT PINT WE

HAD TO BREAK IT

For the first time since 1759 we showed our perfect pint in the wrong glass and invited people to to pay for a new Guinness glass with their old ones.

​

In Ireland, Guinness isn’t just a beer, it’s a religion. And the way it’s poured, a sacred ritual. Always served in a proper Guinness glass. Outside of the pub, many people don’t own a proper Guinness glass. To restore the ritual, we first had to break it. For the first time in our history, we showed our Guinness in the worst possible glasses. Once we had peoples attention, we offered a swap, the wrong glass for the Guinness one.
