Beer Reviews

I went specifically for the fresh hop IPA, but it turned out I was slightly too early and it wasn’t available yet. However, that fortunate timing led me to discover these outstanding beers!

1. Stout

Striking roasted character with a dry bitterness. Medium body that’s not overly thick, making it approachable even for those who don’t usually enjoy stouts. The chocolate and coffee nuances are beautifully balanced — a pleasant surprise.

2. Bitter

An addictive smoothness and gentle astringency reminiscent of an English pub. The mellow mouthfeel of the ale combined with just the right level of bitterness creates an exquisite balance that keeps you sipping.

3. Lager

Crisp and refreshing! The kind of beer you’d want to bring to a BBQ. A perfectly refreshing finish for late summer, with a clean hop bitterness that lingers pleasantly.

Fresh hop IPA uses raw, undried hops harvested that same season for brewing, so it’s only available during the short window of September to October. Bickersons is known for their fresh hop beers too, so revisiting during the season is highly recommended!

I missed the fresh hop by a hair, but the stout, bitter, and lager were all excellent — I actually feel like I gained even more from the visit. A brewery that delivers consistently high quality across every style gives you real confidence. I’ll definitely be back!

Too bad about the fresh hop IPA, but if the other beers are this good, that’s a total win! You absolutely need to come back for revenge during fresh hop season!
