THE RICKARD'S HISTORY

In 1983, a beer enthusiast named Gord Rickard's couldn’t find a pint with real character or taste worthy of his passion for beer. So, he set out to make his own perfect pint. That beer turned out to be Rickard’s Red, and he put his name on it.

Since then, other beers with character and full flavour – Rickard’s White, Rickard’s Dark and Rickard’s Blonde – have been brewed to meet Gord’s standards.

Rickard’s beers are brewed naturally using the finest ingredients – they do not contain additives or preservatives. And our Brewmasters use the finest hops and barley. They combine them with other flavourful ingredients to achieve what Gord wanted to create – well-crafted beers with character worthy of the Rickard’s name.

RICKARD'S IS INNOVATIVE

Unlike other beers, Rickard’s does not add sulphites but instead, uses unique oxygen scavenging caps to protect the beer from oxidation, which can affect the taste and make it go stale.
