More information about Analog-A-Go-Go’s list of samples coming soon. Keep an eye on www.dogfish.com/analog-a-go-go for event updates. Offerings are subject to change based on availability and awesomeness.

New this year, Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione and Record Store Day co-founder Michael Kurtz will host a special, fireside-style chat with Analog-A-Go-Go attendees from 1-2 p.m. During the event, the duo will discuss Dogfish Head’s Record Store Day collaborations and history as the Official Brewery of Record Store Day.

Analog-A-Go-Go attendees can also upgrade their experiences with a ‘Sippin’ on Sonic’ tour. This hour-long exploration of goodness gives guests a brief look at Dogfish Head Distilling Co.’s operations, and offers a deeper understanding of the complexity and convenience of one of its most sought-after products, Sonic Archeology. After sampling the distillery’s brandy, rum and whiskey – the three spirits found in Sonic Archeology – those in attendance will enjoy a half pour of this unique, ready-to-drink bottled cocktail as they listen to classic vinyl tunes. Tickets for the ‘Sippin’ on Sonic’ tour are $20 per person (cost is in addition to the price of general admission) and include admittance to the tour, on-tour tastings, a specialty glass and a 100ml bottle of Sonic Archeology.

Sunday, November 10 – Forget happy hour. It is going to be a happy DAY! From 12-7 p.m., all canned beers are $1 off regular price.

Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in Rehoboth

Friday, November 8 – Texas-based dream pop band Deep Blue Something – best known for its 1995 worldwide, smash hit single ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ – takes the brewpub’s world-class music stage at 10 p.m. After taking a long hiatus from the music industry, this timeless group reconvened in 2016 and is now performing at venues across the country. No cover.

Saturday, November 9 – The weekend’s lineup of live music continues at 10 p.m. with Bronze Radio Return. This group’s rousing, anthem-like sound creates an undeniable, upbeat atmosphere that is one part dance party and another part roots-rock. Affectionately self-proclaimed as, “the band you’ve probably heard, but haven’t heard of,” this five-piece earned its notoriety from songs like, ‘Light Me Up,’ ‘Further On’ and ‘Shake, Shake, Shake.’ No cover.

Sunday, November 10 – For folks that are not quite ready for the celebration to end, the brewpub will host a delicious, Analog-A-Go-Go themed brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. A special DJ will be on stage spinning vinyl and Extended Play by Gidgets Gadgets Retro Emporium will be onsite with a pop-up record shop.

Chesapeake & Maine in Rehoboth

Friday, November 8 – Head on over to Chesapeake & Maine from 5-8 p.m. for smooth jazz music by Bruce Anthony. To accompany his compelling tunes, the restaurant’s selection of vintage Dogfish Head beers will be available for 20% off. Offer available for dine-in only.

Saturday, November 9 – Musician and Dogfish Head co-worker, Kerry Hallett, will entertain diners with a mix of heartfelt originals and reimagined covers from 6-9 p.m. Throughout the evening, Chesapeake & Maine’s new ‘Seafood Keg’ – a heaping pile of fresh shellfish, local vegetables and potatoes in an aromatic broth served in a repurposed beer keg with grilled bread and drawn butter – will be available for $10 off. Each keg serves 2-4 off-centered people.

Sunday, November 10 – Swing by for the sweetest deal in town – Lobster Party Sunday. This dine-in only deal features fresh 1.25 lbs. Maine lobsters for just $12 each. Available while supplies last. For reservations, call 302-226-3600.
