A belgian-style Golden Ale fermented with blackberries and blueberries. This beer is dosed with real, pureed blackberries and blueberries which allow the fruit flavors and aromas to be woven into the actual taste of the beer. The beer is fermented with the same yeast that we use in our Red & White and Pangaea.
The label art for Black & Blue comes from portrait painter David Larned. David and his wife Sarah (also a painter, Sarah painted the still life for our Red & White label) are big Dogfish fans and live with their pug Weezie in Pennsylvania. David honed his craft in Florence, Italy and at the University of Pennsylvania. David has had exhibits across the United States, but primarily works with portrait subjects on commissions in his studio.
For more on Black & Blue, check out our Quick Sip Clip featuring Sam Calagione in the High Gravity Cellars of our Milton, DE brewery. In the video, Sam explains a little bit about the beers we ferment in this cellars area of the brewer. Sam also talked about how the fruit we use in the Black & Blue affects the taste of this beer. Enjoy and Cheers!
