Brickmakers Alehouse Awards 2022

Tuesday 28 June 2022

The Brickmaker's Alehouse in Bexhill made an immediate impact on the real ale and cider scene in the town when it was opened in November 2019 by South East Sussex Branch Members, Martin and Robin. During the various phases of the pandemic, drinks were served whenever this was permitted, maintaining a high standard throughout. In early 2020 it was considered just too early for a place in the following Good Beer Guide (2021) but it was unanimously selected for GBG 2022. It was also awarded the Branch Pub of the Year and Runner Up for Cider Pub of the Year. On 28th June the pub extended its opening hours for an evening presentation of both awards to landlords Martin and Robin by Branch Chair Peter in front of a good gathering of branch members and locals. We were then entertained by speeches from both landlords, happy to make the GBG and delighted to be Pub of the Year too. Howard posted on our Branch Facebook - Great night tonight in the Brickmaker's Alehouse for the presentation of their 2022 Pub of the Year award. Plus, the runner up for the 2022 Cider Pub of the Year. Well deserved. Pictures show from left, Robin, Martin and Peter. Robin and Martin with bar staff past and present.
