Fun Factoid

From Wikipedia:

Arthur Guinness started brewing ales initially in Leixlip, then at the St. James's Gate Brewery, Dublin, Ireland from 1759. On December 31, 1759, he signed (up to) a 9,000 year lease at £45 per annum for the unused brewery.

Wow, what a deal! Guess those landlords didn't have much confidence in their brewery. Also, is good with oysters.
