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!

Bottle from Atkinsons in Ketchum. Dark black pour, no light coming through, medium beige head fades to small tight cap. More coffee than vanilla in the aroma, although there is a slightly sweet element. Roast grains and coffee. Taste offers the bitterness associated with coffee and roast grains, but also has the vanilla to add a touch of sweetness. Not prevalent, but enough to soften the rough edges. Coconut might work well here too.

Draft pour pint at Special Brews. If a beer name makes me chuckle like the mature adult I am, I usually end up ordering it. Not only that, this seemed like the "I just worked all day" kind of beer. Clear golden orange pour with a thin film head. Just barely hinted aroma of a straw grain. Flavor is a pilsner when guessed blind. I ordered this beer before even looking what it was or who brewed it. Pretty refreshing. Has a subtle fruitiness hiding in the background. Leaves you wanting more of this. Very late palate of sub desireable straw. I’d call this slightly flawed, but the good overpowers the less than good. Alright beer overall.

From a 22 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy copper with an off white head. Aroma of dank hay. Flavors of tropical fruits and a nice malt backbone. Tasty.

On draught at Brave Horse Tavern. Dark brown color with a medium foamy light beige head that diminishes steadily to a film. Patchy lacing. Aroma of malt, peanut butter and chocolate. Medium body with flavors of chocolate malt, peanut butter and mild coffee. The finish is roasty with a peanut butter cup aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
