Stout Season Returns: Black Ram, Plum Pudding & Velvet Chocolate Stout
As the nights draw in and the air turns crisp, stout season has officially arrived at Ramsbury Brewery and this year, we’re bringing you three indulgent brews to warm up your winter. From the return of an old favourite to a brand-new creation, these small-batch, handcrafted stouts are now available to buy in mini kegs online and in-store.
Black Ram – Milk Stout (Same Great Taste, New Name)
Winter wouldn’t be complete without our infamous milk stout – just with a new name for 2025. Black Ram delivers everything you loved about the original: rich malt, chocolate and caramel notes, balanced by a gentle sweetness and a satisfyingly smooth finish.
Silky, moreish, and full-bodied, this premium stout is the perfect choice for anyone who loves a classic, creamy dark beer with depth and character.
Same recipe. Same flavour. Just a bold new name.
Velvet Chocolate Stout – New for 2025
Introducing Velvet Chocolate Stout, a luxurious new addition to the Ramsbury line-up. This smooth, sweet twist on our classic stout blends creamy cocoa with gently roasted malt, creating a decadent, velvety finish that’s impossible to resist.
Full-bodied, indulgent, and perfectly balanced, Velvet Chocolate is made for those who appreciate rich, chocolatey stouts and a little winter indulgence in their glass.
Plum Pudding Stout – Fan Favourite Returns
Back by popular demand and awarded Swindon Beer Festival 2024 Runner-Up – Plum Pudding Stout makes its triumphant return for 2025. This celebrated seasonal favourite is bursting with dark fruit and plum notes, balanced by a creamy body and subtle sweet finish.
Rich, comforting, and unmistakably festive, Plum Pudding is the perfect winter stout for cosy evenings or Christmas celebrations.
