Dogfish Head Festina Peche (2022 - )
Draft at Fado. Hazy gold pour. Low carbonation. No lasting head. Strong natural yellow peach flavor. Moderately sweet and sour. Some green grape and lemon as well. Fine but feels heavier and less complicated than the original version.

Dogfish Head Dogfish Oloroso Sherry Barrel-aged 120 Minute
At GABF as “Woodsy 120” but was described to me as “sherry barrel aged” so instead of adding a new entry I’m putting it here. Lightly hazy rich golden hue with a thin ivory head. Bright boozy copper malty aroma with oak notes. Bold flavor that’s malty and toasty with toffee malty sweetness and bright oak. Lingering boozy copper malty semisweet finish.

Dogfish Head Raison D'Extra
Found this gem complete with dust on the bottle tucked away on a shelf at JR's Beer Warehouse near Pittsburgh, PA. Bottled 1/11/19. Plenty of pep on opening. Nose of rum raisin, prunes and a bit of yeast duskiness. Pours medium brown with nice off white head that clings to the rim. Stays around, nice legs. Taste of raisins, prunes, figs, sherry. Belgian quad profile. A bit thinner than expected. ABV clocks in around 16 - 20% (nobody seems to know) but 5 years of aging mellows this brew... there is no hot alcohol burn. This is a sipping beer, like a fine port with a bit of soft carbonation. Finish is dry and balanced for a sweet beer. Be aware: powerful alcohol content. A brilliant confection of a brew and totally YUM. Update: having bought a 4 pak there is inconsistency between the bottles as to aging. One was fine, the other murky and turbid with many loose bits of sediment and an off putting yeast twang to the taste. The head receded quickly, like a cola. I tossed it out. Buyer beware as to 1/11/19 bottling date for this brew. I have lowered my rating accordingly.

Dogfish Head Gather de morro
Lightly hazy rich golden hue with a thin white head. Earthy grainy nose with cabinet spice and light creaminess. Crisp mellow flavor that doesn’t taste like much. Just blonde and gently earthy with a kiss of cinnamon.

A bright golden color with a white head. The aroma contains some citrus, lime, and earthy notes. The flavor is somewhat bitter and slightly sweet well balanced. This is a really decent fruit beer. Some sour notes as well. Overall enjoyable refreshing beer.

Dogfish Head World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel-Aged
On tap at Macgregor's. Pours black with a tiny beige head & little lacing. The aroma is robust with bourbon & booze. The flavor is similar to the utopias version with some sherry, brandy thing going on upfront but making it more of a sipper.

Dogfish Head Citrus Squall
12oz can. Booming salty grapefruit aroma. Quite an odd beer, the agave nectar is perhaps the oddest facet. The underlying strong Golden Ale would have probably been pleasant on its own. Too much going on, not much of it desirable. Worth a tick perhaps, wouldn't want much more.

Dogfish Head Mandarin & Mango Crush
Pours very hazy with an aroma full of mangoes and oranges. The sweet and lightly tart flavor bursts with mangoes and oranges. It’s exactly as advertised and pretty well done.

Oak-aged Vanilla World Wide Stout (2024)
Huge vanilla kick upfront followed by the potent booze in the finish. It pours great & has a fantastic aroma. It’s still an all time classic even if it is more of a sipper!

Dogfish Head Olde School Barleywine
Copper pour w/ a retaining beige head. Aroma is malt, hop, & booze. Flavor is a terrific balance between malt & hop. It is quite smooth at the ABV but finishes just a touch dry. Delightful nonetheless!
Earlier Rating: 1/20/2012 Total Score: 4.4
Pours a rustic orange with no head & very little lacing. The aroma is sweet & almost cider like. The palate is incredibly smooth for a 15% beer. It’s slightly bitter up front but finishes clean. This is an outstanding brew! You have to be careful with it because it goes down so easy

Dogfish Head Nordic Spring
An ok beer. Aroma was light. Berries and lemon. Pour was a very hazy light gold with a thin white film for a head. Taste was very light and not very full. Very strong carbonation drowned out most of the flavor. Good hop flavor with just a hint of juniper after the beer was warm. Good background drinking beer

Dogfish Head Colderest IPA
Cans from the sampler box. Nose strong grapefruit peel and some lychee. Pour lightly hazy yellow with a loose and sudsy bright white head. Taste lightly sweet with low bitterness, tight crispness, fullish body, slowly warming; bitterness mixes with nice, warm bread that lasts into the aftertaste, Principally grapefruit with a healthy splash of orange or tangerine. Average alcohol integration. Touch flabby, a beer I can definitively say is not 'moreish', but not bad. [2024.02.24: 2.9] Edited to add: some kind of nasty lupulin / resin thing going on at both the bottom of the glass and can, head shaking revulsion earns a demerit. [2.6]

Dogfish Head Blue Hen Pilsner
Cans from SBR. Well this one's meant for me. Nose rich in slightly-pungent hops, a real surprise, but they're soft and inviting, mixed with grain and a little lemoncit. Pour hazy yellow-golden with a dense, bright white head. Taste lightly sweet and lightly bitter, soft hops with reasonable sunny malt character; unusually, has a little sour mash, it's tubby and unfinished feeling, not raw, not yet into bread, but mashy. Blunted peppery hop character, lemon less than hoped for, but it does give good east German damp / musty bottle vibes without staleness. Hard to recommend this one, fine with food. [2024.02.23: 2.8]
