House Of Guinness OTT Release: Netflix has earlier this year announced the release date for House of Guinness, a brand-new drama from Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. The eight-part series premiered on 25th September 2025, taking viewers deep into the world of one of Ireland’s most iconic families. Set in the 1860s, the story follows the Guinness dynasty as they deal with a bitter succession battle after the death of their patriarch.

House Of Guinness web series begins with the death of Sir Benjamin Guinness, who leaves behind not only his legendary brewery but also a complicated will. His decision forces his two eldest sons, Arthur and Edward, to share leadership of the empire. This uneasy arrangement sets the stage for loyalty, rivalry, and betrayal as the siblings, along with their sister Anne and younger brother Ben, fight to protect or claim their legacy. The drama unfolds across Dublin and New York, with the Guinness family navigating political unrest, shifting fortunes, and personal ambition. Knight has described the story as one of inheritance and desire, drawing comparisons to HBO’s Succession but firmly rooted in real history.

On the other hand, each of the eight episodes runs between 45 minutes and an hour, making it a binge-worthy watch for Netflix audiences. Early reviews and fan reactions on X (formerly Twitter) highlight its dark atmosphere, morally complex characters, and gripping narrative. Many have praised Knight for bringing the same intensity and musical flair that made Peaky Blinders a global hit.
