February is ON and American brewers are weathering winter with a new roster of beers that you’re gonna want to have around.
New Dogfish Head Grateful Dead Collaboration Beer (Milton, DE) – Continuing a decade long partnership with the Grateful Dead that began in 2013 with the release of American Beauty in 750ml bottles, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery has announced its latest collaboration with the legendary band. Brewed with Kernza® perennial grains from The Land Institute, granola and heaps of good karma, Dogfish Head / Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale is a 5.3% light-bodied refresher that will be available all year.
“As a beer geek with a music problem, few things in life are as sensorially sensational as enjoying a great beer while simultaneously listening to some great music,” said Dogfish Head Founder & Brewer, Sam Calagione…
“In 2025, Dogfish Head is turning 30, and my favorite band of all time, Grateful Dead, is celebrating its 60th anniversary. I’m so proud of the broad appeal of this lovely new beer that’s now making its way to Dead Heads and Hop Heads of all shapes and sizes. With its layered, nuanced flavors of tropical hops complemented by its malty body, our Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale is as compelling and joyful as the band’s music itself.”
Single-Hopped & Worthy (Grand Rapids, MI) – last October Founders Brewing introduced an interesting addition to their roster that they said would be available through December. And we thought you might want to know about it before it totally disappears because it is one of the best new beers of 2024.
A special take on the brewery’s bestselling Session IPA that is brewed using the classic Mosaic hop, Founders All Day Single Hop is an approachable 4.7% ABV India Pale Ale with dank pineapple and lemon notes, a mild bitterness and an uber-clean finish.
This single hop All Day delivers on everything good about Founders All Day IPA and everything they love about hops. Available now (and fingers crossed that it’s still around), Founder’s newest “All Day” variation is a showcase of what hops are and can be.
Deschutes Nails The Non-Alc Porter (Bend, OR) – Deschutes Brewery has taken a bold step into non-alcohol brewing and returned one of their classic beers as a buzz-free variation.
Crafted entirely in-house utilizing Sustainable Beverage Technologies’ BrewVo® technology in combination with Deschutes’ proprietary brewing methods, Black Butte Non-Alcoholic is a new take on the original robust porter, with the authenticity of the original but none of the baggage.
