Ringwood Brewery Tour
On Thursday, seventeen of us enjoyed a wonderful evening being shown around the Ringwood Brewery. Unfortunately, Frank Senior and Debbie, the main organisers of the trip, couldn't attend as Frank is still in hospital. Our Tour Guide, Hayden, gave an introductory talk after his daughter Haley handed out the introductory drinks. The tour was very informative and the very knowledgeable Hayden told many stories about the brewery, it's personnel and a few Ringwood characters. Following the walkabout tour we returned back to the bar to sample the delights of the Ringwood Brewery products.
