What is the OVHA?

OVHA 2025 Club Photo

The OVHA is a group of homebrewers who meet once a month to discuss the art and science of homebrewing beer, learn new brewing techniques, and talk about local craft beer. Membership is open to those over 21 years old and most hail from southwestern Indiana (around Evansville) and northwestern Kentucky. Meetings are held the last Tuesday of the month at the Damsel’s Brew Pub 209 N Wabash Ave of Flags, Evansville, IN 47712, at 7 p.m. If you are interested in joining the OVHA or want to find out more about homebrewing, stop by a meeting and/or read through our Message Board or visit our Facebook Group
