Dogfish is one of the most creative breweries in the US. Sam Adams is un-remarkable in every possible way. I hope they merge well, Sam can do logistics and Dogfish can write the script.
Sam Adams is quite remarkable, except for the beer they directly produce, probably because they know their market well.
Thats pretty crazy, and I suppose a good thing. Dogfish head makes great products, and Sam Adams is one of a few Crafter brewers with a good Distribution across the country.
As a native Delawarean who now lives in Boston, I'm hoping this will improve the variety of Dogfish beers offered in the area. I miss being able to see all of their products in one liquor store.
