Oh-so-approachable
Our original ale that started it all! Way back in 1995, we crafted this very beer on our teeny, tiny brewing system at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Brewed from a blend of premium malt and northwestern Williamette and Cascade hops, this versatile and quaffable beer has a fine malt backbone and a round, nutty flavor. For us here at Dogfish Head a shelter as being a place you come home to. So, come home to Shelter Pale Ale.
Shelter Pale Ale is available exclusively in our Gift Pack Variety Pack.
