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.

6.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Handpull cask from the Salmon, Leicester. Mid-gold and clear with a full creamy off-white/beige head. Slightly metallic/astringent aroma with white grapefruit pith, leafy hop, notes of caramel, some soap. Sweetish but slightly tangy taste, with hoppy bitterness on the tongue near the finish. Light oily body, soft carbonation. Not exemplary.

500ml bottle from Everyman's. Pours dark, good off-white head. Medium bodied stout giving a spotlight to chocolate and espresso roast whilst reigning in the bitterness somewhat. Very satisfying overall. Another banger from Magic Dragon.
