Craft beer is made using a traditional process of blending the sugars from malted grains (such as barley or wheat), with hop flowers and water. The skill of the Masterbrewer brings out the desired aroma, color, mouth feel, foam and flavor qualities of the hops and malt through formulation of recipes and the fermentation of sugars into alcohol, carbon dioxide gas and other characters. After careful aging at just the right temperatures the beer is packaged and delivered to the consumer.

At the Virginia Beach Craft Beer Festival, a tasting ticket includes a commemorative glass and unlimited tastings. This event also features live music in the park. BAND SCHEDULE COMING SOON!
