Arms Akimbo

 
Availability: 
Limited, Draft Only

This deeply robust Porter was brewed with star anise, molasses and balsam fir tips from Dogfish Head,Maine(really, our friends trekked into the woods, chopped off some branch tips, boxed them up and sent them down to Delaware for us to brew with!)to impart a spicy, resinous character in the beer. It is a dark ale with a licorice and sweet roasted malt that are apparent in the aroma. The first taste is sweet with notes of pine, black licorice, molasses and dark roasted malt.

Due to the limited availability of Arms Akimbo, we are sorry that we are not able to offer growlers to go.

...and you know what that means. INVENTORY!!! Almost done.Right now in the brewhouse we are brewing 90 which is what we'll do all day and night tonight. At 6:00 tomorrow morning, the first bit of Sah'tea will be going down....

Like many small breweries, Dogfish Head began as a homebrewing hobby spun out of control. When Dogfish founder Sam Calagione began brewing beer in his kitchen, little did he know that he could someday make beer his job!
