Dogfish Head Announces Extreme Beer Fest 2016 Details

From Dogfish Head:

It’s just about time for the annual Extreme Beer Fest – one of our favorite beer festivals, hosted by some of our favorite brothers of BeerAdvocate. We can’t wait to see what boundaries have been pushed this time around!

February 4 – Pre-party
To get the Extreme Beer Fest party started, we’re kicking things off with our friends at Meadhall to bring you the pre-party throw down! With a few favorites on tap for the evening, you’ll also find some rarities…

On tap –
– Liquor De M’Alstroms
– Festina Lente
– Pants are Cumbersome
– Bitches Brew
– Higher Math
– Oak-aged Noble Rot
– 60 Minute
– 90 Minute
– Namaste 

February 5 – Sam Cruises the Cellar
Dogfish founder and president Sam Calagione will be on hand from 2:30 – 4:00 p.m. to chat all things beer. Even better, we’ll be pouring samples of Namaste and digging out a vintage brew from his stash! 

February 5, 6 – Sessions 1, 2, and 3
You may have heard of some of these brews and you may think ‘huh?’ about others, but we’re bringing the extreme in 2016!

For each session we’ll be pouring …
