American Beauty

Pale Ale - American

In 2013, we released American Beauty, a collaboration with the Grateful Dead. Dogfish Head and the Grateful Dead both built their followings by connecting directly with their fans, so we asked those loyal fans to help drive the beer’s recipe. After more than 1,500 ingredient suggestions, granola came out on top! This year, American Beauty is back for an encore! Clocking in at 6.5% ABV (to mark the year the Grateful Dead was formed, 1965), this psychedelic pale ale is brewed with granola and succulent wildflower honey, and boasts malty and sweet notes of honey, toasted grain and citrus. After one taste of American Beauty, there will be nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile! Available on draft and in 6-packs of 12 oz. bottles.

Vintage 2019;; been in the back of my fridge since 2021, a gift from my aunt Ramona. She said this was leftover from a Halloween hay ride in Boone, 2019.

Meh. Dogfish tries to make light beer. It fails. But with experimentation, sometimes comes greatness, sometimes fails.
