Dogfish Head & Dan-O’s Team Up For Grilling Kit

From Dogfish Head:

Just in time for the official start of summer, we teamed up with our pals at Dan-O’s Seasoning to give everyone another reason to fire-up their grills – a limited-edition, collaborative grilling kit with everything needed to host the ultimate backyard barbeque! Complete with beers, seasoning blends and recipes, the Dogfish Head x Dan-O’s grilling kit is now available exclusively at GiveThemBeer.com, while supplies last.

Because nothing pairs better with a day of grilling than an ice-cold beer, the Dogfish Head x Dan-O’s grilling kit features two distinctive and delicious Dogfish Head brews. First up, a 6pk/12oz cans of our fan-favorite Imperial Golden Ale, Citrus Squall. Brewed with grapefruit juice, blue agave nectar, lime peels and sea salt, this paloma-inspired beer provides a perfect storm of refreshing grapefruit and citrusy hop flavors.

And for those seeking a more limited-edition libation, included will be a 4pk/16oz cans of our all-new Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O beer. Brewed in collaboration with Dan-O’s Seasoning, Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O is a dark lager brewed with ingredients also found in Dan-O’s best-selling Original seasoning blend, like rosemary, lemon peel and orange peel. The result is a malty and flavorful beer with bright pops of fresh citrus and savory herbs.

“Since the day we opened nearly 30 years ago, Dogfish Head has been committed to brewing beers with unique culinary ingredients and cooking up some delicious eats over our brewpub’s wood-fired grill,” says founder & brewer Sam Calagione. “Partnering with Dan-O’s, another brand that passionately prioritizes creating epic flavor experiences for its fans, was such a fun and rewarding experience. Our kismet energies allowed us to create a couple of awesome beer and spice duos that are sure to help anyone up their grilling game. I can’t wait for folks to try them!”

In addition to two Dogfish Head beers, each grilling kit includes Dan-O’s all-new “Grill Ya Sum” Pantry Pack with a medley of  seasonings, including 1 (3.5oz) bottle of each of the following blends.

• Original: A savory and versatile blend made from a signature mixture of herbs, spices and sea salt for a seasoning that goes well with just about everything … especially a pint of its namesake beer, Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O.
• Crunchy: A new take on an everything bagel seasoning featuring a one-of-a-kind blend of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, onion, garlic, and other classic Dan-O’s flavors.
• Preem-O: A unique blend of black pepper, black garlic, black sea salt and spices for premium, savory flavor.
• SEA-soning: A special blend of 18 herbs and spices for robust flavor and just the right amount of sea salt.
• Spicy: A mixture of Dan-O’s Original seasoning blend, cayenne pepper and just the right amount of unrefined sea salt for a flavor that’s just right, without the bite.
• Tac-O: A taco-lover’s dream seasoning featuring a blend of chili pepper, garlic, sea salt, onion, cumin, green chili, cilantro and more.

"Our goal at Dan-O’s has always been to inspire people to cook up a whole lot of fun and do so with clean, flavor-FULL seasoning," says Dan "Dan-O" Oliver, Founder of Dan-O’s Seasoning. "To partner with a brand with the same kind of values, and as fun and special as Dogfish Head, we were inspired in a whole new way. It’s even cooler to be featured together in this grill box for our Fan-O’s, Dogfish Head fans and others looking to get flavor rich."

To complete the Dogfish Head x Dan-O’s grilling kit, we’ve tapped the culinary teams at our coastal Delaware restaurants to create some easy, summer-centric food recipes utilizing Dan-O’s various seasoning blends. From SEA-Squall Cedar Plank Salmon featuring Dan-O’s SEA-soning (try it paired with Citrus Squall) to Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O Beer Can Chicken made with Dan-O’s Original blend (best enjoyed with a can of, you guessed it, Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O), our incredible chefs provide detailed, step-by-step instructions for recreating their tasty dishes at-home.

Limited quantities of our exclusive Y’all Don’t Know Till You Dan-O beer are also available at the Off-Centered EmPOURium in Rehoboth for $17 per 4pk/16oz cans. Later this summer, Dan-O’s “Grill Ya Sum” Pantry Pack will also be up for grabs on the brand’s website.

If you caught our initial announcement from earlier this month, you might remember seeing a Citra-diculous in the mix. Unfortunately, we’ve run into a last-minute quality issue with the new Dan-O’s Citra-diculous seasoning blend and have decided to forego its release … at least for now! It’s definitely a bummer, but we, alongside Dan-O’s, believe in providing you with only the best products possible and this one just didn’t end up meeting our high standards.

If you’ve ordered our limited-edition Dogfish Head x Dan-O’s grilling kit via Give Them Beer, you have no reason to fret! You’ll still be able to up your summer grilling game with the help of Dogfish Head and Dan-O’s. In place of the Citra-diculous seasoning intended for inclusion in the Dogfish Head x Dan-O’s grilling kits, we’ll be sharing Dan-O’s all-new “Grill Ya Sum” Pantry Pack, which features 6 (3.5oz) bottles of seasoning, including 1 bottle of each of the blends above. If you’ve already ordered your grilling kit through Give Them Beer and you’ve decided you want to cancel your order, send an email over to [email protected] and we’ll get it sorted out!
