Dogfish Head Milton Brewery

What an amazing visit! We did the Crooked Tour that was a little over an hour. So worth it for only $20! You got to try 4 different drinks on the tour and then ended with a flight card to use at the bar. All the employees are so nice. It is such a great vibe to be in. Highly recommend not only visiting but getting a tour! The food was delicious too! Loved their pizzas and the Bavarian pretzel.

Great brewery. Loved the atmosphere. Staff is super friendly, I loved that they try to recommend the best drinking order for your flights. You absolutely have to check out the R&D beers on tap, lots of cool new interesting brews that you can’t get anywhere else!

Definitely recommend the “Off-Centered Tour.” $20 gets you 4 samples throughout the tour + a sample glass + a flight afterwards. The tour itself is well done, very informative of not only the brewing process at Dogfish Head but also its history— which was super interesting! My only small critique is that the tour felt very scripted. We’ve been on other big name brewery tours that were a bit more interactive/personal than this one.

This is our must-do place when we are on our round trip to DE!!😍 Beside the great selection of quality beers, the tours are also a must-do if you visit for the first time. Go to their website to check on the time and availability for the tour so you’re not missing anything!

We are always looking forward to try the exclusive beers on tap that you can only get them at this location! The crew members are always so friendly, attentive and knowledgeable!
We highly recommended getting the beer crowlers, as they really know how to fill and seal them well! Our crowlers still taste great after a couple weeks, which did not happen for some crowlers we got from other microbrews.

The indoor dining area has plenty of tables but it will also get packed sometimes. Outdoor area is super cozy (when the weather is nice)!

Looking forward to our next visit already!

Dogfish Head Brewery in Milton is an absolute must visit, whether you’re new to DE or you live here, it’s one of the cooler places in Delaware and truly defines the craft beer scene. Dogfish with the combination of Boston Brewing is the largest Independent craft brewer as well.

We came on a rainy Sunday afternoon to grab a few brews and try their spirits.

Everything we tried was delicious. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, guided us through the selection and were attentive and made we sure we never had an empty glass.

The beer selection is obviously the focus but they’ve put a lot of time into developing a great spirit selection as well. Using local ingredients and partnering with other local small businesses which I think speaks volumes about what Sam and Mariah have created with their team. No matter how big Dogfish has become they’ve stayed true to staying local and supporting local.

The parking is very big so plenty of room. They also have several different tours starting at $5 for the basic tour lasting about 25 min to the longer more immersive tour that lasts about an hour. They also have a distillery tour if you want to see how the spirits are made.

The tour will also take you into their Steampunk Tree House which is super cool and has an awesome history.

There’s also a huge gift shop that offers all kinds of apparel, swag and merch.

If you’re feeling hungry they have a small menu that has rotating soup, charcuterie board, pulled pork, pizza and a Bavarian pretzel among other snack options.

Great experience rain or shine.

So great! Favorite brewery around! Do many great beers etc., many only offered on site! It’s a must visit for beer drinkers!

The tasting room and kitchen at Dogfish Head Brewery is amazing. The weather was nice so we were able to enjoy our beers and food in the outdoor seating area. I had a couple of different hazy style beers and my girlfriend had a Japanese style rice beer. We shared a pizza of the day (bacon jalapenos and cream cheese) some chips and salsa and a soup of the day (beef stew). All the food was excellent, restaurant quality. The prices on everything were very reasonable. We had all that food and 4 beers for $50. My only regret is that we didn't have time to do the brewery tour, we'll have to hit that next time.

OUTSTANDING! What a great atmosphere. It has a very friendly vibe. The employees, the patrons and the Dogs make you feel like you are family and want to spend time with you. Yes it is dog friendly with inside and outside tables. If you have never been there before then start with a beer tasting. They have flights of four beers. There are usually a listing of over 20 varieties. Once you find one that you like, which is harder than it sounds, order a glass. Then head over to the food window to order Bavarian pretzels with beer cheese sauce or crab soups which is amazing. They have a lot of other offerings on the menu including Pizza or Subs of the day, etc. All of the food is great. Before you leave be sure to leave time for the brewery tour. Then don't forget to take home cans of beer and/or spirits from the gift shop. Better yet bring your own Growler and fill it with one of the specialty beers, like the Utopia Barrel 120 minute IPA, (17% abv). Overall you will have a great time there amd will want to keep going back.

Excellent brewery tour! I enjoyed the tour as well as the tasting and the food. All the staff made our experience an unforgettable one and we hope we can repeat again. If you are anywhere close to Delaware don't miss this visit.

Enjoyed grabbing a drink here with family! Plenty of patio space and did get busier around 2pm on a Friday. Carded upon entry.

We had a great experience at Doghead Fish Brewery. Our server was Nicoletta and she could not have been more helpful and informative. She helped us plan our flights, told us about the area and gave us suggestions for other places to visit as this was our first time in Delaware. The property is so beautiful and interesting. I would absolutely recommend this brewery to anyone.

This brewery is excellent! From the delicious beer, to the incredible food, to the tour, Dogfish Head Brewery is a must visit. We got a flight to start, and all the beers we tried were delightful. The Namaste was especially good. Next, we went on a tour, and it was a great time and a good value! We got to see the brewery and received a sample - the whole thing took about half an hour. After that, we got some food, and it was delicious. The pretzel was SO GOOD that we got another one. I highly recommend going here!

Craft Beer! Delicious! Great service and a wonderful atmosphere that is dog friendly and family friendly. Outdoor and indoor seating. The soft pretzel with beer cheese is delicious! I have tried and enjoyed several different beers and their selection varies week to week.

What an incredible space! It's like it's own town really. This place is massive, it's truly something to see. We came on a Friday, around noon-ish. It was pretty well packed with people. The tasting room is pretty big with lots of tables. There are lots of tables and games outside too but it was rainy the day we went. The beer choices are out of this world. For someone like me in NY, there were options I have never seen and sadly will not see again unless we come back to visit. They also have a distillery around the corner of the brewery building (but if you're in the brewery you can still do tastings/drinks). They offer flights of beer or spirits - they also offer actual cocktails with their spirits. Really impressive. There was not one thing we tried that we did not like. They are VERY dog friendly which is so nice. They instantly offered us water for the dogs and most employees came over to greet the dogs. There is a food stand on the outside of the brewery with pizza options, sandwiches, chips & salsa, pretzels, etc. There is also a pretty large retail store inside which we definitely spent some time in. Beer to go, spirits to go, homemade dog treats & other dog accessories, clothing, etc. We spent quite a bit of time here and really enjoyed ourselves. Would recommend to anyone going to this area & we will definitely be back again!

Always a great time at dogfish head! Love trying their experimental beers.

Great place to visit. There is a free tour you can sign up for. The tour guide is very professional and kind (1pm Dec 18th 2022). After the tour, each person gets a free flight of 4 samples. Bought a bottle of “melodious” gin and a orange-mango vodka. I’m Surprised that there is 0 tax on alcohols in DE. Overall a very good place to spend your afternoon at!

Great! The staff were all extremely friendly, the food was great and the tour was informative and had tastings, "smellings" and interesting history. Definitely do it!

This has been a bucket list brewery for years! What a amazing experience. The tour was really cool and the guide was a trip. The beers and reputation speak for itself honestly. But you must check out the r&d beers they have on tap. Every single employee was very nice, friendly and welcoming. Enjoy a nice cold pint and have a great time with friends and family!

I have been waiting to visit for years. Finally got the chance to go in Aug 2022. Did the off centered brewery tour. They take you through the entire brewery and give you plenty of samples. You pay $20 and some change but you definitely make your money back in beer samples. Great tour. My only criticism was the tour email messaging. They tell you to arrive at 1130 but the doors don't open till 12 so you sit out in the patio waiting for nothing. Need to fix their automated emails.

What a great place to drink some super fresh beer! If you can find it. Decent food options too, like; pizza, wursts, etc. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Weird metal treehouse structure looming over it all. They have a really good selection of experimental beers. With wacky flavors. Great dogfishhead gift shop too. For anyone that wants a T-shirt or hockey jersey with their cool logo in it.

The was by far the best brewery tour I have been on. I took the off centered tour which costs $10 and includes an hour tour, a flight of beers at the end and lastly a souvenir glass. Our tour guide was fantastic and what made it even better was that we were the only two on the tour. Our tour guide gave us a very entertaining thorough tour of the dogfish facilities. What I liked the most about this was we saw production from start to finish including to the point where the final product is put on an 18 wheeler. Dogfish really let you see what goes on inside. Lastly all the beers sampled where tremendously delicious. Greatly recommend visiting the brewery. It is by far one of the greatest in the country.
