Dogfish Head marks Record Store Day with limited-edition beer
Craft beer brand partners with Galaxie 500 for Coping Haven rye pilsner beer
Rehoboth, Del.-based Dogfish Head, the Official Beer of Record Store Day, and legendary indie rock trio Galaxie 500 are celebrating with a limited-edition beer and vinyl release slated for Aug. 29.
For the first time on vinyl, Galaxie 500 will release its 1987 live performance: Copenhagen. To complement Galaxie 500’s album, Dogfish Head will release Coping Haven, a Danish-style rye pilsner brewed from ingredients inspired by historical Danish brewing tradition, including floor-malted light golden pilsner malt, hearty malted rye and a blend of Moravian hops. The result is a lager with floral and herbal hop aromas, a bready and gently spicy malt flavor, and a clean, dry finish, the company says.
