Description
Our Brewery is based in North Wales and located in the Plassey, it is the oldest micro brewery in Wales surrounded by glorious countryside. Richard moved into the brewery in 2017 and started making real ale from our 12-barrel brew plant. We focus on brewing a core range with some seasonal specials. Our ethos is to only brew beer we want to drink as we are a small brewery and we want every brew to count. You can try the range of beer in pubs in England and Wales and of course in our own Taproom in Wrexham. We also sell bottles here online and mini kegs too. I hope you enjoy drinking the ale as much as we enjoy brewing it. Liz Lever – Founder.

Formed following the takeover of New Plassey Brewery. Magic Dragon brewery started brewing in Spring 2017. New Plassey (prev Plassey and Gertie Sweet) is separately listed.

Clear chestnut brown with a frothy off-white head and a fruit malt aroma. It's a lovely old school light malty beer with touches of fruit and a dry, floral bitterness

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a dark reddish-brown with a small off-white head. Theres dark fruits in the aroma, and they carry over into the mouth. Plenty of malts too and olde English spangles, humbugs and a hint of liquorice. Finish is quite bitter. This is reasonable.

Clear gold with a bubbly white head and a subtle floral, citrusy light biscuit malt aroma. There’s an initial sharp lemon juice kick before a sweetish, fruity and light malt flavour takes over, the finish being dry and slightly bitter

Third by cask at GBBF Winter 2020, second day, Elgar Bar. Shared with Finn. Bright golden body under a covering head, fair lacing. Moderate smell of tropical fruits. Hop fruity taste joined by a biscuit bite. Mid-dry ending with a discreet bitter touch. Fair enough. (Birmingham 05.02.2020).
