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!

From a 650ml bottle on 15/12/2015 (a Christmas gift from my gorgeous wife, opened early). Pours a very dark brown with the barest of heads. The aroma features a strong whiff of peanuts and vanilla. Flavour wise, it’s a sweetie, with heaps of creamy peanut butter, some chocolate, caramel and more vanilla, with a light roasty bitterness at the back. The texture is creamy and the carbonation is modest. This is my first peanut butter flavoured beer and it actually works really well. A lovely dessert like porter.

Draft - Roast peanuts and chocolate. Deep black/brown with a small white head. Lots of nice roast peanuts with a nice chocolate finish. Not too sweet or bitter, very well done.

On tap at Bailey's, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of peanut butter, some roasted nuts, and a touch of roast. Flavour is along the same lines, with loads of fresh peanut butter and roast. Medium bodied and well-constructed. Really nice.

Bomber. Really looks like a Breakside bottle. Light wax dipped top. Pours a clear reddish hue with a small white head. A really nice fresh fruity nose, vinous with lots of wood. Soft fresh berries, sweeter grapes, oak, light funky elements. This is pretty big and very good.

Another share by Gary and Pam in CO, thanks. 22oz bottle. Retaining thin lt brown-black. A-lots of coffee/chocolate, some tobacco/vanilla-dk malt. T-follows with an earthy hop backbone that is at porter level. Nice.

Draft pour pint at the Hop and Hound. Pours a cloudy pale yellow color with a fading oil head. Big grassy fresh hops aroma. Big hoppy beer. A little sweet and juicy. Oily body. Pretty good.
