A number of things sprung to mind when I was told had opened a pub in Dublin. I assumed the Irishman had plonked an over the top, extortionately priced boozer in the middle of Temple bar to milk the tourists for all their worth.How wrong I was. McGregor avoided the tourist trap that is temple bar and stayed true to his roots. He opened the first of his three pubs in Crumlin, Dublin 12 - the area in which he grew up.Dublin 12 - which is said to be the inspiration behind McGregor's best selling whiskey Proper Twelve - is a residential area that has very little glitz and glam about it and was once regarded as dangerous.
