In Round 2, Victory secured their victory over Flying Dog to advance to the Elite Eight. But the brewery to beat is Bellefonte. As a first-time contestant, Bellefonte was slotted as an underdog, but now this brewery has won two rounds by the hundred vote margin against both Crooked Hammock and Mispillion. 

Victory

Victory is now the 26th largest brewery in the country and makes its beer in Downington, PA. The operation has grown to produce over 93,000 barrels of beer a year, including such popular styles ranging from Double IPAs to Lagers. They're all about intriguing beers with fresh harvests, like their 21st Birthday IPA which is brewed from the Yakima harvest. 

Bellefonte

Hailing from Wilmington, Delaware, Bellefonte Brewing Co. hosts sixteen taps of their own beers including two for Nitro and two dedicated to sours and specialty beers. A regular fan favorite is their Grateful Haze, silver medalist at the 2018 World Beer Cup.
