Ridge Rock Brewing Company

In the picturesque village of Carp in Ottawa’s west end, this craft brewery serves up historical atmosphere and casual meals along with great beers.
 
Ridge Rock Brewing Company makes a great stop on your way to or from The Diefenbunker: Canada’s Cold War Museum. The brewery is firmly rooted in the history and culture of Carp—it’s housed in an 1890s building, the tables were crafted from local trees, and the rail along the bottom of the bar came from a nearby railway spur. Along with traditional beers like amber, blonde and IPA, you can try something unusual, like a tiramisu pastry stout. After noshing on sandwiches, salads, bar snacks and other fare, check out the range of tasty house-made goodies in the brewery store, including beer ketchup, bacon jam, bourbon peaches and even tinned cocktails.
