Flipside Brewery
Microbrewery
in Nottingham,
Nottinghamshire,
England 🏴
Associated Venue: Lord Roberts
Established in 2010
In May 2014 we opened our brewery tap, the Old Volunteer in Carlton Square, Nottingham. The pub has nine real ales on hand pull, four of which are Flipside brewery beers with five regularly changing guest beers. We are proud to be both CaskMarque and LocAle accredited and take great pride in the quality of our beers. The Old Volunteer also offers a range of craft keg beers, bottled Belgian beers and over 40 whiskies from around the globe (but mainly Scotland). Complementing a small but excellent food menu, great decor and an excellent, friendly and welcoming atmosphere, a visit to the Old Volunteer is not to be missed.
After a lot of thought about a name for a brewery we came up with Flipside, a reference to the coin collecting hobby of our head brewer. This also provides the theme for the names of the beers which are loosely based around coins and currency, apart from when we can’t resist using the word "flipping"!

Handpull cask atvthe King's Head, Leicester. Light gold and clear with a small film of white head. Sweet aroma, lemon gummies, citrus zest, honey. Sweet taste with a very little bitterness hitting back. Moee citrus and a little soap on the finish. Body on the light side, a little oily. Decent if a tiny bit artificial.

Cask at Old Dolphin, Derby. Pours a pale yellow with minimal white head. The aroma is just vague hints of citrus and hops. In the mouth it has a watery texture with the predominant flavour being lemon overlaying a base of biscuits, Some general fruitiness too and floral hops come through eventually. The lemon persists into the finish which is otherwise dry. This is not at all bad.
