The Real Ale Ride focuses on giving back to the Blanco community, whose support and surroundings have shaped Real Ale since 1996. Brewing in the Hill Country has always meant embracing the simpler things—fresh air, wide-open spaces, and working with your hands—and this ride brings that spirit to life.
This year’s ride is dedicated to the spirit of Hill Country. In the wake of the devastating July 4th floods, first responders from across the region—including those from Blanco County—have stepped up to support relief and recovery efforts in neighboring communities like Kerrville. The outpouring of support reminds us how connected we all are in the Hill Country.
Proceeds from the 2025 Real Ale Ride will benefit Blanco County Emergency Services Auxiliary, providing essential support for the first responders at the heart of our Hill Country community.
