2025 Dogfish Head Happenings

Mark your calendars … our 2025 happenings are right around the corner!

From Dogfish Head:

It’s hard to believe that we’ve been brewing off-centered ales since 1995, which means next year is officially our 30th anniversary!!! We’re pinching ourselves over here, so of course we’ll be celebrating ALL. YEAR. LONG. with some incredible happenings at our coastal Delaware locations. Mark your calendars now because this is some goodness you won’t want to miss!!

What’s new for 2025?!

Analog-A-Go-Go – Saturday, Nov. 8

You know we couldn’t let our 30th go by without a HUGE. GINORMOUS. MASSIVE. party so that we can raise a pint with all of you! This year, we’re adding a little twist to Analog-A-Go-Go and moving it to November so we can celebrate in style. Our ode to all things indie craft is coming back to our Milton Brewery on November 8, 2025, but we’ll have some off-centered additions in store as a celebration of brewing since 1995 alongside our favorite people – you all! Stay tuned for more details about this birthday bash but feel free to pencil it in!

Your favorites are coming back!

302 Day – Saturday, Mar. 1

We’re kicking off 2025 strong with the annual return of 302 Day, a festival that celebrates Delaware that created and now co-hosted with our pals at 302 Horseshoe Crab! We’ll be paying homage to our slight but mighty First State on March 1, 2025 at our Milton Brewery with live music, a touch tank by Delaware State Parks and local libations, food and merch!

Weekend of Compelling Ales & Spirits – Friday, Mar. 21-23

Get in the spirit of goodness with our Weekend of Compelling Ales & Spirits (WOCAAS)! 2025 will bring with it new beers, cocktails, pairings and some incredibly exciting new partnerships! With our big birthday happening, you better believe we’ll be taking WOCAAS to a whole new level this year, so you might as well time your next trip to the beach around the weekend of March 21 – 23, 2025.

Start warming up those paddles and pedals because PickleBrawl! and Bikes & Beers are both returning in 2025! Our pals from First State Pickleball Club are bringing back another round of PickleBrawl! on May 17, and Bikes & Beers will be cycling through Milton on June 14.

Dogfish Dash – Sunday, Sept. 28

We’ll be dashing for nature & preservation on September 28, 2025 with Dogfish Dash! Our off-centered race is back benefitting Sussex County Land Trust, a nonprofit conservation organization dedicated to protecting natural, cultural, agricultural and recreational resources through land preservation, stewardship, and education. We’re incredibly excited to be partnering with them once again, and if you or your organization is interested in sponsoring this event, please reach out to [email protected].

Punkin Ale Fest – Saturday, Oct. 11

We may have been brewing off-centered ales at our pub since 1995, but our very first beer was actually brewed in ‘94, Punkin Ale! Our free fall family event, Punkin Ale Fest, will be happening at our Milton Brewery on October 11, 2025, and we’ll be paying homage to all things Punkin Ale, from exclusive libations, doggie goodness, local vendors and much, much more! We’ll also be bringing back some all-ages activities from this past year and adding a few more!

Let’s spend the night together!

So, what d’ya say?? Will you be heading our way in 2025?? If you are and you need a place to stay, we’ve got an INNcredible option for you! Situated along the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal, the Dogfish Inn acts as an off-centered basecamp for beer lovers and adventure seekers alike (like there’s a difference). Holding true to Dogfish Head fashion, you’ll find an offbeat approach to style, quality, and craft throughout each of our 16-rooms. Book your stay today at dogfish.com/inn.

More information and registration for these events will be released oh-so-soon, so be sure to follow along with us on Instagram at @visitdogfish and sign up for our newsletter for all the updates!
