‘4x Porter’ is their traditional dark home brewing beer - one for winter - the brew you will find if you visit your local now; a beer for supping next to a warm open fire. In the spring you’ll encounter the ‘Bold Forester’, brewed with a lighter amber malt, giving a gentler more biscuity flavour. ‘Boondoggle’, will quench your summer thirst, while ‘Huffkin’ will serve you well through the autumn months and prepare you for the winter chill. Not only do Ringwood Brewery take pride in producing some of the best beers in the world - they now own a vineyard in the Bergerac region of France. Since the mid 1990s they’ve developed three whites, three varieties of red and a sparkling wine too, all of which enjoy a loyal following nationally. I was allowed to leave freely despite my mention of the ‘L’ word; proudly clutching four bottles of ‘Fortyniner’ - I think there’s something very unusual about this place - I’ve found myself converted; perhaps rehabilitated!
