    WWS is probably my favorite beer of all time. With 2 years on it, it just can't be beat. There is no other beer that tastes close to it.

    Burton, Bitches Brew, 90, Olde School, and PSM are also phenomenal.

    The only DFH beers I didn't like were Ta Henket and Midas Touch.

    Also, Black and Red was pretty terrible, but maybe that is due to my mint in beer aversion.

    gosh, I thought that was what craft beer was all about. Palo Santos and 90 minute are among the best

    60 Minute and Dogfish Head got me into craft beer to begin with, as I'm sure it did many other people too. My favorites (can't just pick one..) would have to be the obvious.. World Wide Stout, Burton Baton, 120 Minute (November 2011 batch on tap was much better than the other few 2011 batches I tasted in bottles..), and Squall. Thank god I saved one last bottle of that one!

    Raison D'Extra. Really hope they bring it back some day.

    For current I'd go with Palo Santo.

    Burton Baton, Indian Brown, Aprihop in that order. 75 min on cask is somewhere in there, but I've only had that once so hard to judge.

    I like some of their stuff, others not so much, but my faves are Palo Santo, Burton Baton, and Festina Peche.

    I haven't tried any of these yet but I have them all waiting in the cellar: Raisin D'Extra, Olde School, 120, WWS.

    My exposure is limited (damn you DFH for your distribution) but I have had a few and Aprihop and Festina are amazing to me. Apricots go so well with the hoppy profile. The festina I love simply because it's so damn refreshing during those hot summer days. Speaking of festina how bad ass would it be in a can on the beach?

    I enjoy a ton of their stuff: Indian Brown, Chicory, fresh Olde School, 90 Min, Aprihop, Bitches Brew, Chateau Jiahu.

    On occasion I'll buy a Black and Blue, Theobroma, My Antonia...

    I think their most successful beer (and arguably their best) is Palo Santo.

    My personal favorite is Burton Baton - fucking delicious.

    Agreed with earlier posts: 75 & 120. In response to other comments, someone needs to keep pushing the brewing boundaries, otherwise it would be a very boring beer world out there. Variety is a good thing.

    relax. you're drinking the calagione kool-aid. there is no correlation between the size of DFH and the quality of their beers. the beers are what they are. some people don't care for the beers but most do. end of story.

    Chicory stout, Indian Brown and Fort. I love their experimentation and would definitely like to try more of their beers. Pricing is often an issue though :X

    Youre assuming I am not relaxed.

    Im drinking the Calagione Kool-Aid? WTF? If I didnt like it I wouldnt buy it. Its not like im trying to hype everything they bottle. I hate Immort Ale and Raison among others. They are still to this day the only two I have drain poured.

    The smartest thing you have said was all that you should have said; "some people dont care for the beers, but most do." yet you just had to bitch...

    I love burton baton, world wide stout is also incredible, but at the end of the day 90 minute has to be my favorite, one of the best readily available double ipa's in the country.
