Fort

 
Availability: 
Limited

An ale brewed with a ridiculous amount of pureed raspberries (over a ton of 'em!). Fort has a Belgian-style base, then we follow a similar fermentation process to the one we use on our other super-high ABV beers, 120 Minute IPA and World Wide Stout.

Due to its high ABV, Fort is an excellent candidate for cellaring. Grab a few bottles, enjoy one now and lay the others down for a few years. Want to know when the Fort you find was bottled? Check the 'Bottled On' date on the neck of each bottle.

Fort is also an excellent food beer. Our favorite pairings include anything chocolate or a nice piece of duck.

The Fort label art was designed by our rock-and-roll friend Tara McPherson. If you love it, check out our ladies Fort T-shirt. Tara also did the label art for our Chateau Jiahu.

Check out the clip below to hear Dogfish founder Sam Calagione talking about Fort and the Off-Centered Wall at our Milton, Del., brewery.

It's a tough job, but a couple of weeks before every beer dinner at Dogfish Head Brewing & Eats, a crew of co-workers sits down with a sample of all the new dishes and figures out which beers work best with each one....
