Ruby River has new owners! The restaurant/brewery located in Riverdale, Provo, Sandy, Salt Lake & Reno, NV
has been a part of the Sizzling Platter family of restaurants which also
include Hoppers, Red Robin & Sizzler since the late 90s. Sadly for most of it's history,
Ruby River's brewing operation has always taken backseat to their
restaurant side, their owners really never embraced it or gave them a chance to spread
their wings and grow. That is about to change.
Recently, the Ruby River chain was purchased from Sizzling Platter and
the new owner appear to have a set different priorities. Rob Bunn
RR's head brewer says, he expects a lot of support
and a lot more emphasis on their hand crafted beers from the new owners. RR is currently
being distributed by Golden Beverage to some local spots in the Ogden
area and Rob adds that, they are going to be focusing on their staple
beers as well as developing some tasty new seasonal offerings and
organizing some special events for the brewery.
It's about damn time that Rob & Ruby River will get a fresh start and a chance to expand their brand. Best of luck!
Also, It's City Weekly's "Best of" time again. If you find this blog helpful please vote for it under best local blog. Thanks!
Cheers!
