While we were fishing on the Chesapeake Bay, we got the idea to make a beer that helps it look nice for a long time. So we partnered with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation to help do things like add oyster reefs back to the Bay. Striped Bass is gold, light in body, and mixes five quality malts with a mix of German & American hops to give it a pleasant hop bouquet. Devils Backbone proudly donates $1 per case sold to support CBF?s mission to save the Bay. 5.2 % abv
This is our Ol? Faithful. No, it?s not a geothermal phenomenon. It?s the beer everybody, including professional beer judges, just seems to dig. Maybe they like how it?s smooth, medium-bodied, and semi-sweet, while not too heavy or bitter. Maybe it?s the amber color, or the blend of four imported malts balanced by two Germanic hops, or the fact that it takes five weeks to get right. Or maybe it?s all the above. 5.2 % abv
Get your hands on the singular soft drink of the South with a click of a button. Literally. Now the toughest part of keeping Cheerwine on hand, is coming up with reasons not to share.
It?s hard being the sequel, unless you wrote the original story. Inspired by the continual hopping process we invented with 90 Minute IPA, 60 Minute builds on that one-of-a-kind process and flavor, crafting a solid gold hit that?s found its own identity. Brewed using a boatload of intense Northwest hops, we boil this continually hopped IPA for a full 60 minutes, adding more than 60 hop additions continuously to create a bold and timeless flavor. Continually hopped to deliver a pungently, citrusy, grassy hop flavor without being crushingly bitter, 60 Minute IPA is a surprisingly sessionable IPA for the craft enthusiast. You?ll quickly see why this sequel has become our best selling beer, and why you?ll find yourself coming back to it again and again. The Greatest Invention You?ll Ever Taste: It was back in the mid-90s when we started messing around with extreme versions of super hoppy IPAs. We would use foolhardy amounts of hops, creating a really pronounced bitterness that seemed out of place. After an ?aha!? moment while watching a cooking show on TV, Dogfish Head founder & CEO Sam Calagione tracked down one of those old school vibrating football games to help feed the beer a continual stream of hop pellets. Boom! Continual hopping was born! You see, traditionally brewers make two hop additions – one big dose early in the boil for flavor, and another bunch at the end for aroma. But thanks to a rigged up football-machine-turned-continual-hopper and our addition of equal increments throughout the entire boil, Sam was able to create an outrageously hoppy IPA, without being crushingly bitter. Now all these years later, and after much more sophisticated second, third and fourth generation contraptions have taken over our continual hopping process, the theory and execution are essentially unchanged. 6% abv
What you have here is the only Imperial IPA in America inspired by a bowl of soup and a thrift store football game… Back in the 90?s, Sam was struck by a cooking show demo teaching viewers how to properly season soup through a process of continuous peppering. As it stewed and simmered, the chef added pepper in small but consistent doses, bringing through a unique bold taste and intense savory notes. If it worked for soup, why not beer?! Inspiration sparked and Sam knew that Dogfish needed to bring this idea of continuous dosing to our hop additions in the brewhouse. Enter our thrift store electric football game. If rigged at just the right angle over the brew kettle, and covered with hops instead of small dancing football players, the vibrating playing field would perfectly shake and shimmy the hops cascading down into the boiling wort at a consistent rate. Continual hopping was born! Continual hopping provided a beautiful balance to our Imperial IPA – allowing us to add a foolhardy amount of hops throughout the boil without making 90 Minute crushingly bitter. With rich pine and fruity citrus hop aromas and a strong malt ackbone, 90 Minute IPA created pungent, unapologetic flavor that led Esquire to call it ?perhaps the best IPA in America.? 9 % abv
Brewed with mouth-puckering lemon flesh, sweet orange peel and blood orange juice, Flesh & Blood balances the resinous hoppy characteristics of an American IPA with the explosive zesty fruitiness and subtle drying tartness of citrus to deliver a highly quaffable ale that?s incredibly unique and lovely to down the whole year round. 7.5 % abv
You can handle the truth! MYTH: IBUs (hop bitterness) can only be achieved in the boil. TRUTH: Uh-uh! The truth is, Dogfish Head has been experimenting with tradition-bucking hop schedules since we opened in the mid-90s. From our continual hopping method found in our 60 Minute, 90 Minute and 120 Minute IPAs to our latest innovation, we’ve been know to zag when everyone else zigs. Liquid Truth Serum is no different, and we’ve liberated a new truth by adding every single hop to this juicy IPA after the boil is complete. An unfiltered IPA that’s bursting with ALL the hops, Liquid Truth Serum is brewed using a unique process that incorporates four different states of hops: whole leaf, liquefied, pelletized and powdered. The result is a blissfully inefficient IPA full of citrusy and tropical notes, that’s truthfully hoppy without being deceptively bitter … honest. 7% abv
