The market town of Ringwood sits on the Hampshire-Dorset border. Its brewery’s identity was firmly in the forest to its east. The logo, a boar, was a nod to the animals which roam freely in the National Park. In the early days, Ringwood beer was only sold to free houses in the New Forest—nearly all of the pubs in the towns were tied to big breweries.
But its influence stretches across Britain and far beyond. In fact, there’s an argument that Ringwood Brewery was the most important British brewery of the past two decades.
