Established in 2001
The Nottingham Brewery can be traced back to 1847, when James Long was listed as an ‘East India and Pale Ale Brewer’ on the site. James Long sold the business in 1875 and after passing through several ownerships it was purchased in 1879 by Edward Wheeler Field. Nottingham Brewery soon established itself as the city’s main brewery, serving fine ales to local citizens from its expanding estate of public houses, including The Plough Inn in Radford. After its closure by then owners Whitbread after the second world war, the name remained dormant. In 2001 it was resurrected by Philip Darby and Niven Balfour.

Cask at Picture House, Stafford. Pours very dark reddish-brown with a small tan head and good lacing. The aroma is mainly roasted malts, with a slight sweetness and hints of cocoa. In the mouth roasted malts are to the fore again, along with ash, red wine gums and traces of cola. Later on some berry fruits come through and the finish is unexpectedly bitter. This is rather nice – a top notch porter.

First beer on a Wednesday afternoon pub crawl around Shrewsbury with myself, 7th February 2024. Hand-pulled half-pint in Montgomery's Towers (Spoons). Brown bodied with a dark red hue, on top a beige foam covering. Bit hoppy for a Mild in my opinion, some roasted malt action but it's hoppy! Wednesday is £1:99 a guest ale pint day in Montgomery's Tower, so my half cost 1 Pound, sadly they had no other beers of interest for me.

Cask at Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a hazy golden yellow with minimal foamy white head and good lacing. As for aroma, first sniff gives malts, the second gives hops and the third gives tropical fruits – take your pick ! In the mouth it is dry and hoppy. Conventional bitterness is understated at first, but grows gradually to dominate. Flavour has melon and orange peel with a hint of spice. Dryness returns at the finish. This is decent – nice and refreshing.
