Hugh Jackman has 'waited his whole life' for a pint of Guinness in Dublin pub

Hollywood star Hugh Jackman was living it up in Dublin before his 3Arena shows tonight and tomorrow.

The actor was spotted working out in a local gym before hitting a Dublin pub to down a pint of Guinness.

Sharing a video on his Instagram page, the X-Men star said: "I've waited my whole life. I've drunk Guinness but they always say it's different in Ireland. I've waited 50 years for this one."

And despite the fact that the pint doesn't look fully settled, the Aussie began gulping it back enthusiastically as onlookers cheered.

After enjoying the first sup, he broke into a wide grin, declaring "Life is good".

Jackman, 50, surprised fans when he popped into a Dublin gym for a quick workout earlier in the week.

The actor shared a photo of himself looking determined while deadlifting a heavy barbell.

"Let's go Dublin!", he wrote.

The star is currently in the middle of his The Man. The Music. The Show. European tour.

The tour kicked off on May 13 in Hamburg, Germany with stops in Amsterdam, Paris, Manchester, Dublin, and London along the way.

Irish fans will get to see Jackman perform hit songs from The Greatest Showman, Les Miserables and more from Broadway and film, accompanied by a live orchestra, in Dublin's 3Arena tonight and tomorrow.
