Dogfish Head From Milton, DE is one of the darlings of the craft brew industry., although given their growth and now ease of availability, they are about as mainstream as that term can apply to the craft brew world. Inspired by the Grateful Dead, brewed with Granola, it becomes an Imperial Pale Ale with 9.0% abv. It poured a nice copper color with a medium thick head and a malty somewhat floral nose. The taste was malt forward with some hoppy undertones. A bit too malty for my taste, but this is a well balanced beer that is quite smooth despite its’ relatively high alcohol content. It does have a nice, fun label.

This is my first post.  This is also my first attempt at blogging, designing, running and hosting a website.  So, please, “beer” with me and have patience.
