Magpie Brewing Co
International - Other
Magpie was started in 2011 by four friends in a quiet alley in Seoul and along the way helped spark an explosion of craft beer. In Korea, the magpie is known to herald good news; like the bird, it's Magpie's mission to spread great beer and craft beer culture across the country.
In 2012, we opened our first tiny brewshop in the sleepy neighborhood of Kyoungridan, with just one pale ale on tap, which set off a flurry of pale ales being brewed across Korea. We followed it up with our porter, made to be enjoyed year-round and upend people's expectations of what a dark beer can be.
