Things to see and do in Dublin
Discussion
Go to Bruxelles, Harry Street. Its the bar with a statue of Phil Lynott outside, a good craic!
Also a trip to Dublin isn't complete without a visit to Copper faced jacks. Its not call slapper faced jacks for nothing
Its bit out of the centre but worth it as its filled with locals not stag parties like temple bar!

We were expecting to see the brewery working but instead were wandering around an over-styled museum of static information. Nothing going on. No clanking bottles or mysterious Oompa-Loompas.
The views from the bar at the top were impressive, but it was very crowded.
In fact, although we enjoyed our 48 hours we were a bit underwhelmed by Dublin as a whole. The people were friendly and the Guinness was tasty but the shopping centre was exactly the same as the shopping centres we're used to seeing in the UK. Same shops. Same craic. Some very pretty women though, if that's your thing. Could recommend an excellent restaurant if you're there in the evening.

Drinking. 
I did this for a bit of a laugh when I was out there.

You get driven around the streets in a WW2 DUKW vehicle, and then it goes water based near Windmill Stuios (where U" recorded a few albums).
Good laugh too
And did I mention drinking??

+1 for a bit of drinking.
It's a nice enough city centre, and compact so that you can see plenty of it on foot.
Not in danger of being threatened with a Michelin star, but go and have a look at charlies chinese takeaway if you've sunk a couple, it's great and handy for the pubs on Temple Bar. Or the Epicurean food court across the bridge from Temple Bar, a good choice of styles from mexican to greek. Again, good for soaking up a pint or two of the black stuff.
