About
Ruddles Brewery was a brewery in Rutland, England. The brand is now owned by Greene King who still brew beers under the Ruddles name in Suffolk, although the current recipes are not those used at the original brewery.

Ruddles became owned by Watneys in 1986, and then Grolsch in 1992, it was sold to Morland & Co in 1997. Morlands moved production to Abingdon only for that site to be closed by Greene King which took over Morlands in 2000.

There is a separate entry for the pre 1986 independent Ruddles.

Bottle from Tesco’s. Poured a clear dark amber with a thin white head. The aroma is rich malt. The flavour is medium bitter, with a liqourice, malt, hoppy palate. A great English session ale.

Dark gold. Aroma of hops and fruit. Taste is sour/bitter. A bland disappointment and a shadow of its former self. Currently a weak link in the Greene King portfolio.

Stylish clear 0,5 l glass bottle, optical like a Whiskeybottle. A light amber in the glass, mighty light tannend head, nice CO2 pearls. Intensive malt and mash on the nose. Starts bitter, burned grain, intensifies in the following tims. To the end hopy, cold black tea with orange. But not my cup of tea.
