Get ready to dive into the wild world of brewing royalty with Netflix’s latest binge-worthy series “House of Guinness,” where family drama hits harder than a perfectly poured stout.

Steven Knight, the mastermind behind gritty series like “Peaky Blinders,” is serving up a historical soap opera that’s basically “Succession” with beer instead of media empires. Picture this: 19th-century Dublin, a recently deceased patriarch, and siblings ready to go to war over the family brewing business.

A Family Feud Brewing with Intrigue

The Guinness clan is not your typical happy family. We’ve got Arthur, the eldest son battling for control; Edward, the conniving sibling with secrets; Anne, who’s been dramatically passed over in the will; and Benjamin, the family’s resident hot mess. Each character brings enough drama to fill a brewery barrel.

More Than Just Beer

This isn’t just a show about making alcohol - it’s a deep dive into family dynamics, power struggles, and the cutthroat world of 19th-century business. Knight weaves arranged marriages, political influencing, and international expansion into a narrative that’s as smooth and complex as the beer itself.

Beyond the Pint Glass

With tremendous production values and a deliciously entertaining storyline, “House of Guinness” promises to be your next obsessive weekend watch. Eight episodes drop on Netflix, guaranteeing enough family drama to make you appreciate your own relatively normal relatives.

Cheers to dysfunction, ambition, and really good beer!
