Sam Calagione is one the forefathers of the craft beer revolution. His brewery Dogfish Head, founded in 1995, now produces over 175,000 barrels of beer annually, growing nearly 400 percent between 2003 and 2006. We traveled down to their massive headquarters in Rehobeth Beach, Delaware, to have Sam show us their very impressive operation. We also visited their brewpub to whip up a scrapple-based beer Sam has been thinking up for quite some time. Enjoy this inside look into one of the world's biggest craft breweries.

I agree with Wayne, it's hard to beat a good barley wine.

The "Fuck you/High five" @7:40 part sums up my life's philosophy and I think it's a very nice way of putting it.

Finishing up my 1st batch of Hellfire IIPA with 12ozs of hops from US, UK & NZ, with ghosts, fatalii's & scorpions. It's dry hopping & dry peppering now! Got most of the ingredients for my rendition of the old German mumme' that'll go down soon as well! Like to try the scrapple beer...sounds like liquid breakfast!

I've never been a huge fan of DFH but have always respected the drive to create something new and different. I too would one day like to open a brewery and have it be 100% project/experimental brews.

You had me at Scrapple. I want some! Thank you Dogfish Head for revolutionizing american beer! Imported beer used to be a thing in America. Now, all I want is American Craftbeer!
