Description
Wild Ride Brewing is a production brewery and Tap Room located in the heart of downtown Redmond, Oregon. Planning began in late 2011, and the beers began flowing from the taps at Wild Ride Brewing on May 10, 2014. We are now open 7 days a week with food options available from the food cart community located on our patio. Our family-friendly Tap Room has indoor and outdoor seating to fit the Central Oregon lifestyle.

Our Wild Ride began when the idea of creating an awesome brewery came alive. A group of lifelong friends, who grew up in Redmond, started plotting the course. With no professional brewer on the team, priority one was finding the right team to create the brews. Through the ups and downs and twists and turns, we met many interesting and special people along the way. Our brewers have been brewing award-winning beers since the beginning and continue to craft innovative and fun styles!

Another important chapter to our story included finding the perfect location. In 2013, we found just that in an old lumber storage building in downtown Redmond. And that’s when this Wild Ride really took off! The building had four walls, concrete floors, garage doors and a tall ceiling, which was all we needed. We then created a plan to add everything else, beginning with running water (some of the best in the Pacific NW). We are thrilled to have found this location in our hometown, and there is no other place we would rather call home for our brewery.

This is the short story of our wild ride, and our story will keep on keeping on as we continue to make great brews for everyone to enjoy. So, what’s your Wild Ride? Whatever it may be, we raise a pint to you and the journey you’ll take to turn your wild ride into a reality.

Cheers!

On tap at Loyal Legion, pours a deep dark brown with almost no head. Aroma is full of root beer character, not much else… uh oh. Flavour is full of root beer, banana, and more horrendous shit. I like root beer but this is fucking awful.

On tap at Loyal Legion, pours dark brown, no head. Aroma has plenty of artificial caramel, not much else. Flavour is artificial, with fake caramel and a touch of cinnamon. Lifeless and rather lame.

On tap at Loyal Legion, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige bead. Aroma reveals gentle nuttiness and caramel. Flavour is much the same, with caramel and candied notes. Sturdy enough malt to hold it together but pretty flimsy. Meh.

On tap at Loyal Legion, pours a deep dark brown, no head. Nose is all banana, with little else. Flavour is full of banana, toffee, and bready malt. Surprisingly decent for a banana porter. Good stuff.

Bottle from a supermarket in Oregon. Aroma is fruity hops, zesty citrus peel, freshly squeezed orange juice, tropical notes, and lightly malt. Flavour is lightly sweet with a bitter finish. Medium bodied. Excellent citrussy IPA, lots of orange juice.

Gold body with thick white head. Hoppy aroma with some fruit. Hoppy taste with some malt, taste hoppier than a 45 IBU would suggest. Clear finish
