Description
Ridgeway Brewing​ was established in 2002 by master brewer Peter Scholey (former head brewer at Brakspear) and his wife Vanda. The name comes from the ancient trade route that winds its way through English countryside between small towns. It has been around for thousands of years, adapting with the changing times, The reason why we chose the name Ridgeway, apart from living on it, was that we hope to create lasting experiences, believe in the long term and love the outdoors.

Bought by Crafty Brewing in February 2025.

Bottle, 0.50l. Aroma is grassy, dried fruity, resinous and caramelly. Pours clear dark golden color with medium sized soapy off-white head, nice lacing and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet and sour fruity and grassy, following is caramelly and slightly medicinal, mouthfeel is crisp and rather dry, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. No gluten, but still fun…
