Dogfish Head Launches 16oz Cans at Rehoboth BrewpubFrom Dogfish Head:

Rehoboth brewpub kicks off the reopening of Dogfish Head’s coastal Delaware properties with the release of fan-favorite exclusive, Covered In Nuggs

Rehoboth, DE ., Thursday, June 4, 2020 – Even with its doors temporarily closed, the folks at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats have been hard-at-work preparing for the brewpub’s 25th anniversary in June. To celebrate this momentous occasion, the brewpub installed a new, state-of-the-art canning line and will debut a stellar series of 4pk/16oz can releases. Drinkers can expect an eclectic mix of iconic throwbacks, like Chicory Stout, Indian Brown and Raison D’Etre; popular brewpub exclusives, like Outdoor Shower and Black Tag; and a slew of limited-edition collaboration beers. Brewings & Eats kicks off its lineup of can releases TODAY, with its fan-favorite exclusive, Covered In Nuggs (6.7% ABV). A classically dank, piney and citrusy beer that scratches every nook and cranny of that IPA itch, Covered In Nuggs is NOW AVAILABLE at the Off-Centered EmPOURium – curbside pick-up only – for just $16 per 4pk/16oz cans.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly 25 years since we first opened the doors of our Rehoboth brewpub. This milestone means so much to me, my wife Mariah and our entire Dogfish Head family,” said Sam Calagione, founder of Dogfish Head. “To best celebrate our 25th anniversary, we thought, ‘Why not go back to where things began – Brewings & Eats?’ With the installation of a brand-new canning line at our Rehoboth campus, we can share our liquid artistry with even more drinkers, spreading off-centered, Dogfish Head vibes to fans far and wide.”

From Brewings & Eats’ outdoor patio and courtyard, guests are offered a peek into Dogfish Head’s off-centered world. With both its 5bbl brewhouse and canning line situated behind large, glass windows, beer lovers have an unobstructed view of the brewpub’s limited-edition libations being brought to life. Beers making their way from grain to can to drinkers’ hands in coming weeks include:

  • Tuesday, June 23: Shelter Pale Ale (5.0% ABV) – $17 per 4pk/16oz cans

There is no better way to celebrate Dogfish Head’s official 25th birthday than with the release of a classic like Shelter Pale Ale. First brewed in 1995, Shelter Pale Ale is the brewery’s original pale ale brewed with Northwest hops and a solid malt backbone for an approachable, versatile and quaffable drinking experience.

  • Saturday, July 4: Faithful Companion (4.2% ABV) – $15 per 4pk/16oz cans

Originally released in the summer of 2018, Faithful Companion is a light and refreshing brewpub exclusive steeped in tradition and goodness. This summer pleasure smells of inviting citrus and light caramel and boasts an artfully balanced blend of caramel malt sweetness, citrusy hops and an easy bitterness.

  • Saturday, July 11: Floating Orchids (6.5% ABV) – $18 per 4pk/16oz cans

Brewed with pink guava, passionfruit puree and a selection of extra juicy hop varieties, this tropical IPA made its brewpub exclusive debut in the summer of 2019. Reminiscent of everyone’s favorite tiki drinks, Floating Orchids offers a tsunami of fruit flavor in every sip.
