Ridgeside Brewery

We are a proudly independent brewery based in Meanwood, Leeds, United Kingdom. Founded in January 2010, Ridgeside built a sterling reputation on producing excellent cask ales, with a particular focus on hop-forward pales and a specialty of beer from the wood.

Our amazing team; Matthew John Lovatt, Stephen Clements, Stephen Edward Lovatt, Thomas Henry Connolly and Jorge Gonzalez Moore continues the fantastic legacy of Ridgeside, whilst embracing the attitude and stylistic possibilities of the modern craft beer movement.

In addition to our solid line up of long-time favourites, we are continuously investigating and experimenting with diverse styles, flavours, and aromas to brew limited-edition specials. Whether tinkering with specialty malts, long conditioning lagers, or perfecting our kettle souring technique, we are committed to bringing a caring, fresh and improved approach to craft brewing and delivering a variety of real ales in all packages.

Our philosophy is simple; brew a beer to be remembered.

Our vision is to expand our presence in the United Kingdom while becoming an exporter to the world.
