Guinness is flowing in Irish pubs on a Good Friday for the first time in 90 years.
Lines of people were reported as pubs opened at 7 a.m. to serve alcohol, thanks to legislation that overturned the 1927 ban on pubs opening on Good Friday in time for thirsty locals and tourists.
The Vintners' Federation of Ireland welcomed the change, saying it would add 40 million euros (USD 49 million) in sales.
Chief executive Padraig Cribben said "the Good Friday ban is from a different era and is rightfully consigned to history."
