    Additional Notes:  Like Ruddles County with the same quality ingredients including the rare Bramling Cross hop. The robust bitterness is balanced by toffee/caramel from the crystal malt, this beer has a crisp dry finish with less sweetness than in County.

    Good old fashioned bottled bitter

    This is a superb light-ish ale, excellent when chilled on a hot day. No over gassy or heavy but full of flavour. Takes me back to beers of 50 years ago like Whitbread's County Ale. Better on hot day than lager.

    Nice beer.

    Very good beer... almost as good as County. It would be great if Riddles County was available in cans again!

    A Ruddle Good Ale

    Ruddles Best has a superb flavour, which is not too hoppy, and not too strong/ It's also very suitable to accompany meals. A very satisfying beer.
