Drink up!

Nottingham Ale Trail

The Nottingham Ale Trail is back for 2022!
 |  Katie Hogg  |  Food & Drink

There is a huge amount of love on both sides of the bar for cask ale. With over 40 breweries in Nottinghamshire and nearly 50 pubs serving cask ale in the city centre, it remains central to Nottingham’s pub scene. This is what inspired It's In Nottingham to bring you the Nottingham Ale Trail.

What is the Nottingham Ale Trail?

The Nottingham Ale Trail is a month long celebration of local pubs, breweries and cask ale. This year the trails will take place from 29 Jul until 29 Aug 2022. There are a number of themed trails to explore, with collectable pin badges available for completed trails, as well as a new commemorative T-shirt for the triumphant souls who complete them all. You can take a peek at all seven of the new trails on the website: www.itsinnottingham.com. Once again there will be a special canine trail for those of you with a dog. 

Taking part is easy! 

Simply choose one of the trails to follow, buy a half or a pint of cask ale and collect a stamp from the pub at each stop. Once an entire trail is completed, head to the Tourism Information Centre to claim a limited edition Nottingham Ale Trail pin badge. For those who complete all the trails, a free special edition T-shirt will be waiting for you at the end of your journey. Trail maps can be collected from any participating venue and the Nottingham Tourism Centre. The event is completely free to take part in and everything you need to get started is supplied to you. The only thing It's In Nottingham don't supply is the ale (sorry!).

Anyone taking part, please do drink responsibly and remember that you have an entire month to complete the trails; so don't feel like you need complete a full trail all at once and take it at your own pace. 

Limited edition pin Badges:

Once you've collected all your stamps for a trail, please head to the Nottingham Tourism Centre to claim your limited edition pin badge. There are eight badges to collect in total.

Limited edition T-shirts: 

If you complete all the trails, as well as the pin badges, you'll also receive a free limited edition Nottingham Ale Trail T-shirt!

Details: The Nottingham Tourism Centre is closed on Sunday. Maps can be collected from any participating venue as well as the Nottingham Tourism Centre. *An exact date will be revealed soon* The Nottingham Ale Trail is organised and run by It's in Nottingham, not the participating venues. If you have any questions, complaints or feedback; please direct them to us via email or our social media pages.

The Nottingham Ale Trail is in Nottingham, brought to you by Nottingham BID - a city centre alliance.
