With the official start of fall just around the corner, Dogfish Head unveiled its list of seasonal drinks. That includes the return of its iconic Punkin Ale. Punkin Ale (7.0% ABV) returns for the 30th consecutive year as Dogfish Head brews this full-bodied brown ale with real pumpkin, brown sugar, allspice, nutmeg, and cinnamon. This brand is bursting with notes of cinnamon spice and smooth pumpkin. This fall favorite is now available from coast to coast, both on draft and in 6-pack and 12-oz cans. Track some down using Dogfish Head’s Fish Finder.
Part of Dogfish Head’s Art Series, a yearly collection of four beers featuring artwork by a singular collaborating artist, this year’s Punkin Ale boasts illustrations by Methane Studios. Known for their hand-crafted, intensely detailed screen prints, Methane Studios is an Atlanta-based operation. Beer-loving Ohio natives Mark McDevitt and Robert Lee make up the studio duo. Methane Studios’ interpretation of Punkin Ale’s label artwork centers on an edgy Jack O’Lantern-type character. He’s complete with a full sleeve of tattoos and a black cat sidekick.
“It’s hard to believe that I first brewed Punkin Ale more than 30 years ago, when it claimed first prize in the recipe contest at southern Delaware’s yearly Punkin Chunkin Extravaganza,” said Sam Calagione, Dogfish Head Founder & Brewer. “As our longest commercially distributed brew, it’s always heartwarming to see folks’ excitement for Punkin Ale’s annual return.”
Punkin Liqueur
The pumpkin-spiced goodness continues with Dogfish Head’s limited-edition Punkin Liqueur (30% ABV). Dogfish Head offers Punkin Liqueur in 375-ml bottles exclusively at its coastal Delaware locations, starting the process with Punkin Ale, which they distill and age in used rum barrels to impart sweet notes of oak and molasses. They finish the spirit with a flush of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, vanilla, brown sugar, and a touch of sage, creating a seasonal liqueur perfect for sipping on its own or in your favorite fall cocktail.
For fans of fall, but not pumpkin flavors, there’s no need to fret … Dogfish Head has you covered, too! Just in time for the chillier weather ahead, Dogfish Head excitedly introduces a brand-new variation of its highly sought-after World Wide Stout. Brewed with a ridiculous amount of barley, World Wide Stout is a dark, rich and roasty Imperial Stout. This year’s iteration, Affogato World Wide Stout* (15.0% ABV), takes Dogfish Head’s beloved beer to the next level, with added notes of espresso and sweet vanilla for a liquid version of the well- known Italian treat. Available in select markets, where legal, in 4pk/12oz bottles.
