Ed Sheeran has been snapped enjoying a pint of Guinness on Wicklow Street, with Grafton Street visible in the near background, as he posed for a photo with excited fan Sara Gomez.
The star performed at Whelan's last night as part of a series of warm up shows ahead of his Croke Park gigs this coming Saturday and Sunday, April 23 and 24.
The Bad Habits hit maker looked relaxed as he held a pint of the black stuff while smiling with the delighted fan beside him.

Last night's Whelan's gig was the first of ten shows Ed Sheeran will play in Ireland. He is due to play Vicar Street tonight.
It seems that the global superstar is quite the fan of Guinness as he kicked off his time in Ireland by popping into Fitzgeralds of Sandycove to pull a pint for himself and everyone in the bar.
Fans were pictured yesterday evening eagerly waiting for the doors of Whelan's to open to see Ed.
Four fans from the UK even queued outside the venue from 5am to get a glimpse of their favourite musician. Aurelia Rehberg, Kelly Higginbottom, Tania Close and Davina Beckett held a handmade sign asking Ed to write them a tattoo.
Another fan, Dara Hayden from Rathcoole, had with him a sign saying that it was his dream to play music with Ed.
It will be a busy weekend at Croke Park as the singer takes to the stage on Saturday and Sunday. His support acts, Denise Chaila and Maisie Peters, will take to the stage at around 6.30pm and Ed will be on at around 8pm.
Some tickets still remain for both Croke Park shows as well as his stadium gigs in Cork, Limerick and Belfast.
