Dogfish Head's Newest Seasonal Variety Pack

Dogfish Head's New Tropical Squall

MILTON, Del., March 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The first official day of spring calls for a toast and Dogfish Head has a boatload of delicious beverages perfect for the occasion! Best enjoyed while soaking up the sun, the following beers and cocktails are now available from coast-to-coast. Track some down using Dogfish Head’s Fish Finder.

First up is Tropical Squall, Dogfish Head’s new Imperial Golden Ale brewed with pineapple and mango. Clocking in at 9.0% ABV, this juicy refresher offers a wave of sweet, ripe pineapple and lush mango flavors, transporting the drinker to a tropical paradise with just one sip. It’s one type of squall you won’t want to miss! Available on taps and store shelves, in 6pk/12oz cans.

“As the seasons change, there’s nothing I love more than getting outside and enjoying a beer,” said Sam Calagione, Dogfish Head Founder & Brewer. “Whether it’s after my daily paddle board session or while out enjoying Mother Nature in coastal Delaware’s Cape Henlopen State Park, I can’t think of a better companion than one of our mighty tasty adult beverages.”

And the fruity flavors don’t stop there – Dogfish Head’s fan-favorite Festina Pêche is back! Originally released in 2007, Festina Pêche (4.5% ABV) is an uber-refreshing neo-Berliner Weiss brewed with boatloads of fresh peaches. The result is a complex and intensely tart summertime sipper with bright peach flavors and aromas.

For this year’s launch of Festina Pêche, fans will find the same beloved liquid, but all-new packaging artwork by Drew Millward. An international illustrator best known for drawing “the old-fashioned way,” Drew adds a playful twist to the beer’s label design with a “peachy beach-goer” ready to hit the waves.

Available on taps and store shelves, in 6pk/12oz cans … but that’s not all! Folks can always enjoy Festina Pêche in Dogfish Head’s newest seasonal variety pack.

Decked out in tie dye packaging, Dogfish Head’s newest seasonal variety pack is a 12pk/12oz can assortment of four warm-weather beers, including Festina Pêche. The other beers featured in the variety pack are as follows.

• Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale (5.3% ABV): A juicy pale ale created in collaboration with Grateful Dead and brewed with Kernza® perennial grains from The Land Institute, granola, and heaps of good karma.
• 30 Minute Light IPA (4.0% ABV): A hoppy, crisp and crushable continually hopped light IPA with just 95 calories and 3.6g carbs per 12oz can.
• SeaQuench Ale (4.9% ABV): A session sour brewed with black limes, lime juice and sea salt for a citrusy-tart union that has captured the hearts of beer, wine and margarita drinkers alike.

Last, but surely not least … something special for the spirits lovers! Dogfish Head’s Vodka Cocktail Mix Pack, an 8pk/12oz can package with a bevy of four spirits-based, ready-to-drink cocktails, is getting a new flavor – the Blueberry Citrus Vodka Lemon Drop. Exclusive to the Vodka Cocktail Mix Pack, the Blueberry Citrus Vodka Lemon Drop (7.0% ABV) is Dogfish Head’s off-centered take on a classic lemon drop martini made with Dogfish Head vodka, zesty lemon juice and sweet blueberry juice for a bright, tangy and vibrant cocktail.

The Blueberry Citrus Lemon Drop joins the Vodka Cocktail Mix Pack alongside the following cocktails, all of which feature real fruit juice and Dogfish Head’s house-made spirits.

• Strawberry Honeyberry Vodka Lemonade (7.0% ABV): A well-balanced, light-bodied sipper with flavors of fresh-squeezed lemon and sweet berries.
