Shelter Pale Ale

Pale Ale - American

This is our original and most approachable beer. We got our start back in 1995 brewing this very beer on our teeny, tiny brewing system at Dogfish Head Brewing & Eats in Rehoboth Beach, Del. Brewed with a premium barley and northwestern Williamette and Columbus hops, Shelter Pale Ale has a fine malt backbone and a slightly nutty flavor. It's a versatile and quaffable beer.

Apparently a throwback, and not a bad session pale ale.

DEFINITELY was not expecting this pale ale to be as good as it is. This is packed with delicious notes, a light malty flavor and VERY subtle barely flavor. The six hops used in this beer are amazing and I with my glass would continue to refill itself!

Beautifully hoppy and fresh as fukk OG American Pale Ale. Straight from the source. I wish I drank more of this. First time at Dogfish.

Mostly clear dark golden pour with thick white head, excellent retention and lacing. Aromas of grains, nuts, citrus, and pine resin. Flavor starts with biscuit and hints of caramel and a slight nuttiness, hints of citrus and grass follow, finishes piney.
