About Brew Masters
It's cold, it's comforting, it's beer ... but for Sam Calagione, founder of one of America's leading craft brewers Dogfish Head Brewery, beer is a passion, a business and a personal quest for best, most imaginative brews. BREW MASTERS follows Sam and his partners in suds as they travel the country and the world sourcing exotic ingredients and discovering ancient techniques to produce beers of astounding originality.

on the DVR. Coincidentally, I had some DFH Pangaea on draught tonight. Probably the biggest let down I have had as far as beer goes. Especially, for $12.75 a pint.

Hmm. I thought it was pretty good. Nothing amazing but still enjoyable. I had it from a bottle, and here 750ml bottles are like $12. However, I had Theobroma from a bottle and thought the same, but when I had a sample of it on tap it was terrible - tasted like medicine.

As far as the show, I really enjoyed it. Granted I am a big homebrewer and hope to attempt a brewpub of my own. Looks like the next will be all about DFH as well. Hopefully some of the others include other breweries, but we'll see.

Someone PM me if they can still get bottles of Bit@hs Brew.
My wife really wants to try it after watching the show, and I cant get DFH here.

Wish I would have known... I was at their brewpub in Rehoboth Beach over the weekend and they had it.

Cheers,

Great to see the show on, but unfortunately I fear the exposure is going to have a seriously negative effect on our ability to purchase... case in point: just called Total Wine out here to see if they still had some *****es Brew for Travis's wife, no such luck. And I can't think of a time I was in there in the last few months they didn't have it in stock.

I can usually get everything DFH brews, but have yet to see this on the shelves in my area even before last night's show, so I'm not much help to ya right now. I'll keep looking, though...

I was in NC today and scored another bottle and according to an email I got a second release hit shelves at one of my local stores today so I will verify that for truth and if so I'll send you a PM

I work at a large liquor store. We can get things pretty easy, usually. We got 1 case of GI Bourbon County Coffee, 22 cases of Founders KBS, etc. We got 1 case of *****es Brew and it was gone it less than a week. This was waaay before the show. It will be interesting to see if it affects DFH sales. If we had any more BB I would have picked one up just for the show, since I'm lame like that, haha. I had one and it was great. Very impressed. Now to see if my co-worker will let me buy the one he has stashed, hah.

I think the whole series is DFH.

Discovery wanted to do a show exclusively about DFH (think American Chopper) but the guy at DFH said he wanted to include other breweries as well. So from my understanding the show will center of DFH but will occasionally feature trips to other breweries.

I heard somewhere that DFH was doing a second batch of *****es Brew this year so that they could capitalize on the Brewmaster's premier...but I haven't seen anymore bottles anywhere? Stupid rumors

Taken from DFH's Facebook page dated Nov. 15th

"Batch #2 of *****es Brew is being packaged today and will start shipping to wholesalers later this week. It'll go to markets where we already sell except NH, MI & TN (so sorry to folks there!)"

Another comment by DFH after the initial post

"Here is what I know....
For MI - they did not approve b/c of the name (doesn't make sense, but that was what we've been told)
For NH - not approved - I don't know why
For TN - I'm hearing it was sent there the first go-around, which means it will go there again. Our compliance person is out today, so hopefully I'll know more in the next few days!"
