About
We’re proud to be a small, independent, family-owned business. Our founders Hamish Coates, Mel Holland and Colin Coates have stayed true to this for the entire life of the business.

With no outside investment or intervention, we make decisions based on what’s best for our staff, for our brewery and for the future of our planet.

This means that when it comes to doing the right thing, there are no shareholders or investors to answer to – we can just do it.

We are 100% independent, 100% family owned, and 100% of arguments are won by Ace – the dog!

Our farm and brewery take their name from a natural outcrop of ironstone that runs through the centre of our farm; “Rocky Ridge” perfectly sums up our slice of paradise and ironically sums up the somewhat rocky road that we are on as well.

Aromas of coffee, maple, chocolate and lemon. Very smooth taste. Perhaps could have been slightly richer if I'm being picky.

The mango aroma leaps oit of the glass with vanilla, orange peel and bread. The taste has some aspirin as well. Very enjoyable in a taster at the brewery, but that's probably the right amount

44cl can at Vastactiv tasting. Poured dark brown in color, not much head. Strong malty and slightly berryish with raisiny notes, sweetness and vinous notes. Heavy stuff for sure.

Heavy, sweetish and slightly roasty with some hints of berries, oak, wood, vinous notes and hints of herbal spices. A bit untypical

(Can, 0.44l, thanks Arde, at VastActiv, 20240112) The beer poured toasted malts, raisins and prunes. Palate was full bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were prunes, raisins, vinous notes, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet, malty and bitter. Pleasant.
