Dogfish Head Brewery Unveils 2020 Beer Release Schedule

Dogfish Head Brewery, recently merged with Boston Beer Co., has unveiled its beer release schedule for 2020.

This coming year, the pioneering craft brewery will release more than 160 unique products. These include the brewery’s lineup of regional and national beers and distilled spirits, plus the ever-expanding list of exclusive libations available only at its coastal Delaware properties.

“While our calendar of nationally-distributed brands is ready to roll, many of our regional and local releases remain in ideation,” says Sam Calagione, founder of Dogfish Head. “This allows our talented brewers and distillers, and me, the flexibility to quickly consider whims, hunches, artistic trends and the following of our collective muse to inform our creative journey.”

Additionally, throughout the Mid-Atlantic, the brewery will distribute a selection of small-batch, 375ml bottles from its ‘Wooden … it be nice!’ wild beer program.

Beer-lovers from coast to coast will see the following products on both taps and shelves.
