- So, what exactly makes an Irish pub an Irish pub?
In the 1970s, Irish architecture student Mel McNally spent his final year in school studying the design of Irish pubs (partly as an excuse to drink with his buddies). They hit up all the famous pubs in Dublin, and brought along their sketchbooks and measuring tape to answer one question: What makes these places work?
Their findings resulted in an international business and now, McNally ships Irish pubs to every corner of the globe in 40-foot long containers. And inside of those crates are the elements he's found that'll make an Irish pub "authentic."

The shipping container bit @3:02 -- where obviously the actor has nothing to do with the site -- IS ABSOLUTE GOLD
They clearly Bowfingered that scene
It's reassuring knowing whatever strange city work sends me to, I can always find the Irish Pub in town and know exactly what I'm getting. Good beer, good food and a warm comforting environment.

Selling Craic to the world - priceless! 🍺

@aprikitteh I was about to say the same thing. The shipping container scene is just hilarious.
Pray he is such a genius!
Wow! I know someone in a Celtic band so I have been to plenty of these pub-style restaurants/bars. Very interesting!
Wow! Amazing story.
Someone I know must of contacted him they opened a true pub with all the contents from Ireland including the wait staff
This is hilarious
I'm an Irish mutt (meaning my mom's side of the family were from Ireland and some of my dad's...). I love this, I'll really be checking out the environs a bit more next time I go to an Irish pub!
"Drunk Irish Pub History"
You really should have used a real picture of Nel McNally for educational reasons. the main reason I clicked on the video was to be educated first, entertained second.
Recommends a Irish bartender...Now that is racist!
Does NPR mean "National Progressive Radio?"
Public. Just public.
Lmao, THIS is the video that prompted you to ask that?
@@mowkikowski I dunno, I always thought it was National Progressive Radio. Maybe that was the original name and later they changed it to Public. Or maybe not.
Globalizing pubs hmmm
lets keep alcohol worshiping.
Its not a problem if its in a pub.
it's a leading cause of death world wide.
Doesn't surprise me at all!
The TV adds are almost criminal.
Theres a dozen micro breweries within 20 feet of each other.
College courses on the production, marketing, and consumption of it!
lets not even mention mixing prescription and over-the-counter drugs with it.
