How to Make Hop Water

Fun idea from Clawhammer Supply. Somebody let me know if you try this.

"Love sparkling water? We did too, until we discovered hop water. You might not have heard of it before, but hop water is tastier, healthier, and it's super easy to make. In this video, we'll tell you what it is, how to brew it (and tweak it to your liking), and how to bottle/keg it so you have an infinite supply at the ready.

In short, it's carbonated water brewed with hops instead of fruit/artificial flavors. Hops are typically known as being one of the primary ingredients in your favorite beer styles. They're what gives beer its characteristic bitterness and flavor (they're also really good for you)."

Behind the Scenes: The Making of a Beverage Calendar

Here’s a peek behind the curtain at what it takes to cook up Dogfish Head's beverage calendar.

Rusty Barrel x Stone Mango Maya Milkshake IPA

Stone Brewing: "In 2019, we partnered with the American Homebrewers Association (AHA) to host a people’s choice homebrew competition at our Richmond, Virginia brewing facility. The clear favorite and winner of the competition was a creamy, hoppy, tropical creation from Richmond native Rusty Burrell of Rusty Barrel Home Brewing. Over the years, these competitions (which we’ve hosted as far back as 2009) have resulted in some of the most unique and sought-after beers we’ve brewed – only thanks to the ingenuity of folks like Rusty. No matter which beer takes the prize, everyone wins when creative brewers get to share their passion with the people. And it all starts with one batch. 

Intense aromas and flavors of coconut, mango, fresh fruit, and vanilla are balanced by a creamy, thick body and pleasant sweetness. There are some underlying tropical notes from hops to round everything out. A very complex beer that unfolds with layer upon layer with every sip as all the components work together."

  

Founders Centennial IPA

Love this video from Founders Brewing Co. as Centennial is one of my favorite all-time IPAs. Always so balanced.

Let Marklyn, one of our Education Managers, guide you through the ins and outs of Centennial IPA, a stalwart of our year-round lineup and a titan of the IPA scene.

Dogfish Head Quick Sip Clip: Blue Hen Pilsner

Dogfish Head: "Blue Hen Pilsner is a crisp and refreshing pilsner brewed with only four ingredients – water, hops, yeast, and barley. What makes it so special, is that all the barley used in Blue Hen Pilsner is grown and malted right in our backyard of the Delmarva Peninsula. Giving a loving nod to our slight yet mighty home state, the label art features the Delaware state bird and a color palette similar to that of the Delaware state flag! Look for this all-day drinking pilsner wherever you find great indie craft beer."
