The Dogfish Head cocktails are a product range from the Delaware-based brewery that is focused on offering access to premium alcoholic refreshments in a simple, no-nonsense manner. The cocktails come in three varieties including Blueberry Shrub Vodka Soda, Cherry Bergamot Whiskey Sour and Strawberry and Honeyberry Vodka Lemonade. Each of the cocktails feature a 7% ABV and highlight natural flavors along with added juices in each of the recipes.
The Dogfish Head cocktails are available for purchase a price point of $14 for a four-pack of 12-ounce cans and highlight flavor experiences that mimic the flavor of bartender-made refreshments. This follows on the continued popularity of personal, at-home occasions as consumers seek out simpler ways to enjoy high-quality libations without heading to the bar.
