Dogfish Head: The Delaware Brewery That Took Up Vodka
Dogfish Head's spirits began in 2002, when a stainless-steel bin spotted in a rural Delaware scrapyard was reshaped into a pot still the company named Frankenstill, its About page says. For a dozen years that distillery sat on the second floor of the Rehoboth Beach brewpub, selling limited runs of rum, vodka, and gin mostly at the pub and select Delaware retailers, Beverage Industry reported in 2014.
The brewpub where Dogfish Head started
The company began in June 1995, when co-founders Sam and Mariah Calagione opened Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats, Delaware's first brewpub, in Rehoboth Beach, its website says. That brewpub program turned out peanut butter vodka and chocolate vodka among other curious creations, FSR magazine said.
The Milton distillery and its stills
Head distiller Graham Hamblett, a horticulturalist with nearly two decades running a winery and distillery, joined Dogfish Head in January 2014 to lead the new distillery, Beverage Industry reported. The Milton operation runs two 500-gallon copper stripping stills and a 250-gallon copper vodka column made by Vendome Copper & Brass Works of Louisville, Kentucky, FSR magazine said. Dogfish Head wanted a vodka that could showcase "some of the heart and soul of the beers" as well, Hamblett told the magazine.
When Dogfish Head vodka was due to launch: two timelines
Beverage Industry reported in September 2014 that the expanded Milton brewery would let rum, gin, and vodka roll out in spring 2015 across Delaware, New York City, and other mid-Atlantic markets. FSR magazine instead reported in 2015 that the scratch-made line was planned for launch that November, with Analog Vodka, Compelling Gin, and Whole Leaf Gin as the first spirits, due to reach Delaware first in mid-November.
How Analog Vodka was packaged and priced
The packaging, designed by Saxco International, uses a square flint bottle with an embossed Dogfish Head logo and a mahogany wood-topped synthetic cork, The Spirits Business reported in February 2016. Analog Vodka was headed to several Mid-Atlantic states at a recommended 32.99 US dollars, the report said. See the TTB label records for Dogfish Head on this page.
