Swiller2 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Since I live In the first state aka Delaware I have the privilege of being an hour and a half away from one of the greatest craft breweries of our time(that's just my opinion). Dogfish Head Brewery has been on the cutting edge of craft beer since 2003, if you ask me. Everything they do from employee grown hops (for their D.N.A.- Delaware Native Ale) to the amount of research and authenticity they put into a beer like Pangea they are in a league of their own. Sorry if this is sounding like an ad but I wholeheartedly love everything about this company and the product they produce. The company seems to be owned and operated by people who genuinely LOVE what they do. From the tour guides to the safety head, to the brew master and the awesome bartender and his (very lovely, if I do say so myself) counterpart at the gift shop register these folks love their craft. The thing that really gets me is how committed the company and everyone is to the environment. Almost every aspect of the brew and bottling process is thought about in 2 ways: First, and foremost the quality of the end product. Second, are we using all of our means to ensure that the first standard doesn't suffer while we maintain an astronomically efficient green process. So yea I am rambling. My bad, I just love it when companies are this awesome and dedicated to what they do. Here are some pics, sorry if they suck. My cameras batteries died and I used my Droid X Here is a photobucket (I know photobucket, sorry) slideshow of all the pics I have atm. Here are a few if you don't want to look through all of them lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevepole Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I just recently started hearing about Dogfish beer. Haven't got around to trying it yet, but I like their tree fort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiller2 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 I just recently started hearing about Dogfish beer. Haven't got around to trying it yet, but I like their tree fort. It's called the "Steampunk Treehouse" it was originally built by an art collective(can't remember the name atm sory) at burning man in 2002-ish. After burning man they put it on ebay for $1. Sam, the owner of Dogfish Head, saw it and bought it. He then spent something like $50,000 to have it broken down, shipped and reassembled where it is now. Oh and the spiral stair case built also. Really cool. And I would suggest trying any Dogfish Head you can find if you live in the area where it's available in the stores. Just be really careful, the average alcohol content of DFH ale is wayyy higher than your average beer. My personal favorites are My Antonia, and Pangea.

stevepole Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I see them every once in a while at one of the local grocery stores when I'm picking up a 6-pack or something. I even noticed this week this eatery/wine bar has two of their beers on tap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Never even heard of them. Will definitely give it a try if I see it in the store anywhere.
