Tasting America’s Big, Experimental Flavor

Some of the finest beer in the world is brewed in the United States, including a varied selection of fan favorites. This is obvious when you attend the annual Odessa Brewfest, which hosts over 50+ breweries that are proud of their American heritage and American-style beer.

The most common style of beer produced by many big breweries is American lager. Some of Odessa Brewfest’s smaller breweries, however, also produce various other styles like amber ale, cream ale, and California common. America’s devoted craft beer scene has also produced major winning styles like American Pale Ale, American IPA, Black IPA, and American "Double" or "Imperial" IPA.

Delaware Is Home to Many Fan Favorites

The First State is a "hop-bed" of craft brewing; some of the finest beer in the world is brewed within its borders. This is evident at the Odessa Brewfest, which always hosts some of Delaware's finest beers. The proof? The fans say it best: every year the Odessa Brewbracket winner has been a Delaware brewery!

The Delaware breweries at Odessa Brewfest love creating new experimental flavors combined with a quality brew, to surprise and delight your taste buds. Depending on the brewery, you can find fruity, spicy or tangy flavors highlighted — perfect for any discerning beer lover.
