Delaware has experienced a brewery explosion over the last two decades with new spots popping up all over the state. However, there is one local staple that started it all—Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. Known for “off-centered” brews and unique beer flavors, Dogfish Head is back with their ninth annual Analog-A-Go-Go Weekend event at each of their properties in Milton, Rehoboth Beach and Lewes on Nov. 8-10.

Kicking off the festivities on Nov. 8 at Dogfish Head Tasting Room & Kitchen in Milton is a happy hour featuring discounted canned beers, a pop-up shop from a local comic book store plus live music.
