    You own the copyright to the photos you have taken.

    You could contact Guinness (or whatever marketing agency they are using) about using them to advertise Guinness. You could contact postcard companies about turning them into postcards. You could sell them as artistic prints/posters. You could photoshop out the guinness logo (trademark) if it appears and sell them on stock photography websites.

    Once they are not being used in a commercial context (to advertise a 3rd party product or service) you wouldn't be infringing on Guinness' trademark.
