Bridge Road Brewers X Stone Brewing Dark Harvest – Fresh Hop Dark IPA

Bridge Road’s annual harvest celebrations are a highlight of the Victorian beer calendar, and for the 2026 edition, they have teamed up with the legendary Stone Brewing to produce this standout Dark IPA. This collaboration is all about the hops, featuring flowers picked at HPA’s Rostrevor Hop Garden and thrown into the kettle in Beechworth within six hours of leaving the bine. You can expect an incredible aromatic profile where fresh passionfruit and stone fruit notes collide with a subtle herbal edge. On the palate, the beer remains impressively lean, offering a touch of dark chocolate richness and toasted biscuit from the malt bill before finishing with a firm, lingering bitterness. It is a masterful meeting of fresh local ingredients and West Coast expertise that perfectly balances bright, floral hop character with a deep, roasty backbone.
