So one of my new favourite things to do is seven-degrees-of-Kevin-Baconing all types of Irish buildings or art or literally anything to beer history. Ie, making connections between what you can see, what there once was, and beer.

Large old door in an old grey stone structure with rubble in front of it. Blue sky and clouds above. Grass on bottom and a hint of trees at the sides A glimpse over a wall at various roofs of Howth Castle. Turrets juxtaposed with regular roofs. Mostly see grey stone with shingled roofs as well.

Nice to see the use of a juniper stick to stir the crushed malt. That gorgeous brown colour in the mash tun means a good conversion. This all looks very much like our brew day, similar quantities of malt, same mashing process, same aroma. But you have to run a mash to know about the sweet smell.
