It’s that time…time for the Great American Beer Festival! It’s like Christmas in September for the beer community. 

Founded in 1982, GABF has grown alongside the craft beer industry and has since become the premier U.S. beer festival and competition. GABF represents the largest collection of beer ever served in a public tasting event—sounds like our kind of tasting event!    

Bringing together brewers from East & West, North & South, the Great American Beer Festival celebrates the diversity that makes the U.S. the world’s greatest brewing nation.

Here at Dogfish Head we’re stoked, pumped, giddy, and down-right excited to be taking part. What can you expect to find when you roll up to the Dogfish Head booth?  Check it  ...

- Pennsylvania Tuxedo
- Beer for Breakfast
- Shelter Pale Ale
- Squall IPA
- The Seeds
- Higher Math
- Sixty-One
- Choc Lobster
- Barrel-Aged Palo Santo Marron
- Midas Touch

We’ve also got a few events happening around Denver to keep the party going throughout GABF.
