Rehoboth Trip-Part 2



OK-So I am a little late posting the rest of the details about the Rehoboth/Dogfish trip. On 3/31 we went to the brewery in Milton De for the 3:00 PM tour. As luck would have it, Sam Caligione was giving that days tour and it was a funny, informative tour with a lot of free sampling of great beers. This was the most generous brewery tour I have been on. The tour lasted a little over an hour and we sampled Raison D'Etre, 60 minute IPA, 90 minute IPA, Shelter Pale Ale and the Brown ale. As the owner and the one who created Dogfish, Sam was able to give a unique perspective on the brewery tour and on the state of craft beer. We really enjoyed the tour. After the tour we purchased some beer (2 bottles of Red & White, a bottle of Black & Blue, a 4 pack of Burton Baton and a 4 pack of 120 Minute). We then headed back to the Brewpub in rehoboth for dinner and we drank 90 minute IPA that was dry hopped using Randall the Enamel Animal! It was a really good two days of Dogfish!
