School is open.
Study Beer.
Nothing beats an experience which includes our favourite libation, BEER. We have a robust offering of monthly tasting classes scheduled for 2025, kicking off with one of our favourite subjects, Belgian Beers. School is always open at Top Hops.
Our esteemed instructor is the always charming and knowledgeable Alex Gonzalez Jones. With over 20 years of experience in the beer industry, Alex has developed a rich and infectious knowledge of all things beer. He has traveled the world visiting many iconic breweries. With an expertise in Belgian beers, Alex works with Huyghe Brewery, the home of the renowned Delirium beers. And, yes, you can refer to him as Sir Alex. In recognition of his contributions to preserving and promoting the rich heritage of Belgian beer, Alex was inducted into Belgium's prestigious Knighthood of the Brewers' Paddle.
Classes will be held at the Essex Market Kitchen on Thursdays from 6:30 to 8pm. Prices are $65 and $75 for select classes.
