Lost Ridge Brewery
Lost Ridge Brewing’s petite tasting room and expansive outdoor beer garden serves farmhouse style craft beers brewed onsite. Here in the land of winegrowers and wine drinkers, we’ve dared to be different. Using pure well water, hops and grains grown in premier beer nations of the world, plus local seasonal ingredients, we craft small-batch ales reflective of the wildness of this Georgian village setting. We experiment with herbs, spices and fruits grown in our own orchard and surrounding area, occasionally we get inspired and gather these in the alpine Tushetian meadows, Alazani lowlands or Gombori Pass.
While any industrial brewery can churn out unimaginative bland lagers, Lost Ridge offers made-in-Georgia classic styles such as Belgian-inspired ales and Tripels, Saisons and Pacific Northwest-style IPA. Our special brews are bottled and aged in our onsite beer cave.
We invite you to come and explore the amazingly diverse world of beer with us as we experiment with local and international ingredients to craft innovative Georgian brews.
