Description

Boasting a brewing history older than america, Delaware packs an outsized punch within the craft beer scene with its landmark breweries and bold flavors. In 1873, the German lagers of Wilmington’s Diamond State brewing rose to dominance. After Prohibition and the bust of the primary craft beer bubble, entrepreneurial homebrewers resurrected the industry. Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head led the charge by rewriting the state’s beer legislation, and the sector opened to other brewpubs like Stewart’s and Iron Hill to pair savory bites with their brews. By 2009, production breweries like 16 Mile and Fordham & Dominion were on the upward thrust, changing the arc of Delaware beer. Beer creator Tony Russo tells a story of giant risks and leading edge brewers and proves that there hasn’t ever been a greater time to drink local.
