Magpie Brewery
Microbrewery
in Nottingham,
Nottinghamshire,
England 🏴
Associated Venue: Barrel Drop
Established in 2006
Magpie certainly isn’t the fledgling it once was, with the addition of three pubs, Crafty Crow, Barrel Drop and Doctor’s Orders, where you can experience our great ales and the best of independent brews from near and far. In 2019 The Crafty Warehouse bottle shop and taproom were established next to the brewhouse, where you can buy directly from the brewery or stop for a pint. If you’re a true magpie, remember to check our social media for information on pre-match drinks!
Despite our evolution from 2006, ultimately Magpie began with a passion for beer and a love of the craft, and that’s something that we’ve maintained. We aim to bring you the finest beer, made from the finest ingredients – no shortcuts, no compromises.

Handpull cask at the Doctors Orders, Nottingham. Mid- to dark gold and clear with a thinnish white head. Floral aroma, some Hay with light notes of soft citrus. The taste comes alive with a bitterness that asserts balance almost immediately and a long strong bitter finish. I didn't have have high hopes but this beer nailed it. Nice.

Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. For some reason I was expecting a dark beer, so got a bit of a shock when it poured golden yellow with a small foamy white head and good lacing. There’s a little citrus in the aroma, but not much. In the mouth it is crisp, tangy, and somewhat sweet with floral hops and lemongrass. Some grians and hints of pepper as well. Finish is rather dry. Not bad at all – though a bit nondescript.

Cask at BeerheadZ Nottingham Station. Poured a clear reddish brown colour with a bubbly off-white head. The aroma is malt, floral hops. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a smooth, super dry, light roasty, floral, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
