Whenever celebs come to Ireland, it’s rarely too long before they’re pulled into a pub for an obligatory pint of Guinness. If they’re very lucky, they’ll even be invited behind the bar to pour one of their own.
Emily Blunt is now one of those privileged people. The actress is filming in Crossmolina, Co. Mayo and made an appearance at The Thatch Inn in the town during some time off. The Mary Poppins Returns star was given a warm welcome and was filmed receiving a quick lesson on how to pour the perfect pint behind the bar.
To be fair to her, the result wasn’t bad for a novice and you can see how she got on below, courtesy of Mayo North Tourism.

Blunt is in Mayo with fellow Hollywood star Jamie Dornan as the pair film Wild Mountain Thyme, an upcoming adaptation of the John Patrick Shanley play Outside Mullingar.
She’s certainly making the most of her stay here and she’ll no doubt be an expert pint-puller before she heads off again.
